Johnathan East Stranger Off The Street
Well, I drove home from work this evening
The same way I always do
And, on the street there by the motel
Well, I was shocked when I saw you
I felt my heart as it was breaking
I saw you were not alone
And any chance we had together
Well, I knew that it was gone.
(Chorus)
Didn’t I treat you like a lady
Didn’t I make your life complete
And this is how you go repay me
With some stranger off the street.
I sat there thinking ‘bout the reasons
I thought this can’t be what it seems
And he put his arm around you
As the red light turned to green
I didn’t even try to stop him
I just let you walk on by
But, as I drove on down the highway
I couldn’t help but wonder why.
(Repeat Chorus)
This is how you go repay me
With some stranger off the street.
