A Lover, Yet a Stranger

I don’t know what would happen years from now Who’s to say that I won’t forget you? Maybe your face won’t be clear to me And in my mind you’ll remain a stranger to me Many years have… passed me by… since I’ve seen you I don’t know… if I have… seen you recently But every time that I take a glance at you Something inside me stirs However, I don’t really know you So why does my heart pound within me so? I don’t ever recall me with you For my mind is telling me that you’re a stranger Don’t be so… frustrated… and disappointed I haven’t… done anything… to offend you I just don’t remember your face But it seems my heart does However, I don’t really know you But why do I feel relaxed around you? Everything just seems so confusing But my mind keeps telling me that you’re a stranger However, I don’t really know you But why do I get excited around you? I feel my heart is toying with me Because my mind tells me otherwise But why would my heart beat within me so? I must know you in someway My mind tells me that you’re a stranger But my heart insists that I really love you
