This heart of mine is burning slow
My time has yet to come, to come
So darlin' don't you be cross with me
Each day has enough trouble of its own

And I won't lie, I won't try to make you lift this heart of stone
And I won't hide, girl I'm on your side, I'll make you feel at home
Make you lose that urge to roam
And if you love me, don't be a stranger

I've loved you lately, I've loved you in vain
I made you walk the tightrope of my mind, my mind
And through all these lonely nights I've spent on the Earth
I've never lost a minute of our time

And I won't lie, I won't try to make you lift this heart of stone
And I won't hide, girl I'm on your side, I'll make you feel at home
Make you lose that urge to roam
And if you love me, don't be a stranger
And if you love me, don't be a stranger
Don't be a stranger

And I won't lie, I won't try to make you lift this heart of stone
And I won't hide, girl I'm on your side, I'll make you feel at home
Make you lose that urge to roam
And if you love me, don't be a stranger
Don't be a stranger
