Through the back door, my heart Up the stair well dark and dingy I can feel the sweat on my fingertips What is this power you over me?
You with your black eyes and your red In the the sun shines on temple street All the smile freedom But you're not like them, you got a heart of ink
And I met you, I'm a stranger to myself Since I met you I'm a to my to myself, oh
So women walking beautiful With L.A. dreams and big as basketballs But you've got a cold that could paint them silly And I don't care if good or evil
Since I met you I'm a to myself, oh I met you I'm a stranger to my to myself, oh
I can hear footsteps on the floor Devil or angel come and let me through door Your door, oh
Since I met you, I'm a stranger to I met you, I'm a stranger to myself Oh, since I met you, I'm a to myself Oh, since I met you, I'm a to my to myself, oh, oh
(Stranger to myself, oh a to myself) (Stranger to myself, whoa, a stranger) To, to (Stranger to myself, oh a to myself) Oh, a (Stranger to myself, oh a stranger)
You know, darling, the day I met you I'm just a long, tall, dark, (Stranger to myself, oh a to myself) to myself, oh a stranger (Stranger to myself, oh a stranger) (Stranger to myself, oh a to myself) (Stranger to myself, oh a stranger) Oh, ooh (Stranger to myself, oh a to myself) (Stranger to myself)
