A Stranger’s House Lyrics by Will Butler

A Stranger’s House / Nearer to Thee

2022

[Verse 1]
Relaxing in a stranger's house
I thought to myself
"What an easy life"
But when the sirens shifted near
They sang from my mind
That pale desire
[Chorus]
I'd rather be with you tonight
I'd rather be with you tonight
I'd rather be next to you tonight
I'd rather be next to you tonight
[Verse 2]
Compared to this, a perfect line
Beyond two points
In an endless plane
So simple and so infinite
Even I can grasp
With my stupid mind
[Chorus]
I'd rather be with you tonight
I'd rather be with you tonight
I'd rather be next to you tonight
I wanna be next to you tonight
[Verse 3]
If I could find a stranger's house
In the long sunlight
A silent world
Protected by a wall of life
From any broken thing at all
[Chorus]
I'd rather be with you tonight
I'd rather be with you tonight
I'd rather be next to you tonight
I'd rather be next to you tonight
I'd rather be with you tonight
I'd rather be with you tonight
I wanna be next to you tonight
I wanna be next to you tonight
[Outro]
If I didn't have to drive
I would love close my
If I didn't have to drive
I would love close
