Don’t Treat Me Like a Stranger Lyrics by Dave Loggins

One Way Ticket to Paradise

0

I don't object to you leavin', callin' it even
We tried and could not live together
But just one thing before you go, just think enough to say hello
Let a kind word pass between one another
'Cause we spent too much time tryin' to keep this love from dyin'
We just can't walk away and not remember
We could not save this love, it would not work, so we'll split up
But don't you treat me like a stranger
Don't you treat me like a stranger
Go on and leave but honey, when you see me
Don't treat me like a stranger
I knew you better than your mother, I was your lover
I knew your ways and I knew your secrets
I knew you inside out the same way you know me and now
We just can't walk away and pretend we never met
'Cause we spent too much time tryin' to keep this love from dyin'
We just can't walk away and not remember
We could not save this love, it would not work, so we'll split up
But don't you treat me like a stranger
That's all I'm askin', don't you treat me like a stranger
Go on and leave but honey, when you see me
Don't treat me like a stranger
Don't you treat me like a stranger
Yes, we spent too much time together
To walk away just like we never felt anything for one another
We could not save this love, it would not work, so we'll split up
But don't you treat me like a stranger
Oh baby, don't you treat me like a stranger
Go on and leave but honey, when you see me
Don't treat me like a stranger
That's all I'm askin' is don't treat me like a stranger
