Perfect Stranger - Steve Forbert

If someone could only talk to me

And show me the way through sorrow

And make me the man I’m supposed to be

I could see clear tomorrow

And there she is

There she is

I search for the same things every day

Somebody’s got my answers

And someone could calm this curse away

Down with the moonlight dancers

Well, there she is

Your perfect stranger

In her eyes

You see your future

She’s the one

Your nights are long for

Go on and tell her so

And then you’ll know

She knows, she knows, she’s wonderful

Lifeline glances and steamboat chances

She knows that much

Small town traces and strange new places

She shows that much…

If someone could just get close to me

Someone the stars appear for

And show me the things I’m 'sposed to see

And all of the dreams I’m here for

Well, there she is

Your perfect stranger

In her eyes

You see your future

She’s the one

Your nights are long for

Go on and tell her so

And then you’ll know

She knows, she knows, she’s wonderful

There she is

Your perfect stranger

In her eyes

You see your future

She’s the one

Your nights are long for

Go on and tell her so

And then you’ll know

She knows, she knows, she’s wonderful

There she is

There she is

There she is

Your perfect stranger

(Ah…, perfect stranger)

There she is

Your perfect stranger

(Ah…, perfect stranger)

There she is

Your perfect stranger

(Ah…, perfect stranger)

There she is

Your perfect stranger
