Stranger in the House Songtext

Stranger in the House Songtext
This never was one of the great romances
But I thought you′d always have those young girl's eyes
But now they look in tired and bitter glances
At the ghost of a man who walks ′round in my disguise
I get the feeling that I don't belong here
But there's no welcome in the window anyway
And I look down for a number on my keychain
′Cause it feels more like a hotel everyday
There′s a stranger in the house; nobody's seen his face
But everybody says he′s taken my place
There's a stranger in the house no one will ever see
But everybody says he looks like me
And now you say you′ve got no expectations
But I know you also miss those carefree days
And for all the angry words that passed between us
You still don't understand me when I say
There′s a stranger in the house; nobody's seen his face
But everybody says he's taken my place
There′s a stranger in the house no one will ever see
But everybody says he looks like me
But I thought you′d always have those young girl's eyes
But now they look in tired and bitter glances
At the ghost of a man who walks ′round in my disguise
I get the feeling that I don't belong here
But there's no welcome in the window anyway
And I look down for a number on my keychain
′Cause it feels more like a hotel everyday
There′s a stranger in the house; nobody's seen his face
But everybody says he′s taken my place
There's a stranger in the house no one will ever see
But everybody says he looks like me
And now you say you′ve got no expectations
But I know you also miss those carefree days
And for all the angry words that passed between us
You still don't understand me when I say
There′s a stranger in the house; nobody's seen his face
But everybody says he's taken my place
There′s a stranger in the house no one will ever see
But everybody says he looks like me
