Everyday Stranger Lyrics & Chords By Sara Bareilles

Every word, every touch every look is a little too much

I'm helpless now to the arms of this stranger.

Haunting smiles, one by one creep inside and it's over and done

Lost control, but without feeling danger



Does he know how it feels, to be dying inside when he goes

How it feels to be wondering if anything shows how it feels

Oh my everyday stranger.


Playing games in my mind say that I don't want one of his kind.

I'll wrap him up in a blanket of goodbyes

Then a turn for the worst, he looks up and I'm already cursed.

Tangled up and it's harder to disguise.



Does he know how it feels, to be dying inside when he goes

How it feels to be wondering if anything shows how it feels

Oh my everyday stranger.


There's nothing I wouldn't do to keep from dreaming of you

Unless you wanted me to.

But that's something I may never know

There's nothing I wouldn't say to make it easier to walk away

Unless you ask me to stay

But the only way I'll survive is if I go.



Does he know how it feels, to be dying inside when he goes

How it feels to be wondering if anything shows how it feels

Oh my everyday stranger.
