Sleep With A Stranger Lyrics by Jr. Gone Wild

Folk You (The Guido Sessions)

1986

[Verse 1]
My thoughts are getting clearer
And I know the time is near
But I don't just what I'm gonna say
'Cause we've been best of friends now
Since God I don't know when
And I'm scared to death of throwing it away
[Chorus]
But you'd rather sleep with a stranger
Than make love to a friend
You say a friendship's sacred
You don't want to see it end
And I've tried so hard to fool myself, but I know you're right
And I wish I was a stranger tonight
[Verse 2]
Just thinking 'bout the times we spend
Together me and you
You know how much I really care
So I search your eyes for some small sign
You'rе feeling like I do
But I can't seem to find it anywhere
[Chorus]
You'd rathеr sleep with a stranger
Than make love to a friend
You say a friendship's sacred
You don't want to see it end
And I've tried so hard to fool myself, but I know you're right
And I wish I was a stranger tonight
[Verse 3]
So I'm seeing you tonight
Just like I have a thousand times
We'll sit back, we'll talk and have a few
We'll tell the same old stories
And laugh the same old way
And like always, I'll fall in love with you
[Chorus]
And you'd rather sleep with a stranger
Than make love to a friend
You say a friendship's sacred
You don't want to see it end
And I've tried so hard to fool myself, when I know you're right
And I wish I was a stranger tonight
Yeah I wish I was a stranger tonight
