Don’t Go to Strangers Lyrics by Etta Jones

The Best of Etta Jones: The Prestige Singles

1960

[Verse 1]
Build your dreams to the stars above
But when you need someone true to love
Don't go to strangers, darling, come on to me
[Verse 2]
Play with fire 'til your fingers burn
And when there's no place for you to turn
Don't go to strangers, darling, come on to me
[Bridge]
For when you hear a call to follow your heart
You follow your heart, I know
I've been through it all and I'm an old hand
And I'll understand if you go
[Verse 3]
So make your mark for your friends to see
But when you need more than company
Don't go to strangers, come on to me
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 3]
Make your mark for your friends to see
But when you need more than company
Don't go to strangers, darling, come on to me
