New Found Stranger

[Verse 1]
Funny how a stranger can walk into your life
And suddenly the ordinary starts feeling right
I barely know your story, but I love the way you smile
And every conversation makes me wanna stay awhile

I wasn't looking for forever
Wasn't searching for a sign
But something in the way you found me
Makes me wonder if it's time

[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe we're just two hearts
Standing at the start
But I can feel something changing
Every time you're in my arms

[Chorus]
So maybe someday, could you be my girl?
Let me be the one who gets to brighten up your world
I'll learn every dream, every scar, every side
Be the one you can run to, with nothing left to hide

I don't need forever promised here tonight
I just wanna keep discovering what makes your soul come alive
And if this stranger becomes something more
Baby, let me be the man your heart's been waiting for

Let me be your safe place
Let me be your home
Let me be your world
And you'll never walk alone

[Verse 2]
There's something kinda crazy about how good this feels
Like I've known you much longer than the time we've had is real
Every laugh pulls me closer, every look keeps pulling through
All these walls I built around me start disappearing with you

I wanna know your favorite songs
What keeps you up at night
What makes you laugh until you're crying
What makes everything feel right

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna rush the moment
I just wanna let it grow
But there's one thing in my heart
That I think you ought to know

[Chorus]
Maybe someday, could you be my girl?
Let me be the one who gets to brighten up your world
I'll learn every dream, every scar, every side
Be the one you can run to, with nothing left to hide

I don't need forever promised here tonight
I just wanna keep discovering what makes your soul come alive
And if this stranger becomes something more
Baby, let me be the man your heart's been waiting for

[Bridge – Soft / Emotional]
I won't promise perfect
I won't pretend I know
Exactly where this road will take us
Or how far we might go

But I'll promise you my effort
I'll promise you what's real
And if you give this heart a chance
I'll show you how I feel

From strangers...
To something...
To maybe everything...

[Final Chorus – Big / Emotional]
So when you're ready, would you be my girl?
Take my hand and let me show you how beautiful love can feel
I'll stand beside your dreams, I'll be there through the storms
I'll hold you when you're breaking, keep you safe inside my arms

You don't have to answer tonight
We've got all the time in the world
But I'm hoping somewhere down this road
You'll wanna be my girl

Let me be your laughter
Let me be your peace
Let me be the arms you fall into
When the whole world makes you weak

You started as a stranger
Now you're changing my whole world
And maybe one beautiful day...
You'll let me call you my girl


[Outro]


Who knew a stranger
Could feel so much like home?
Maybe this is only the beginning...
And we'll never have to wonder alone.
