about

In the end of a relationship that has run its course, two people find themselves complete strangers to one another and sometimes even to themselves. "Stranger Again" explores this place through the longing of being the kind of strangers we are in the beginning of a relationship. Before the trappings of the day to day take their toll-- the dirty dishes, piles of laundry, keeping score. Before we learn to settle and take one another for granted.
“Stranger Again” taught me to understand that the deepest levels of intimacy are created when we give our relationship intentional space. This is how we let our love evolve and root. Daily life with a partner can be mundane or precious. Halfhearted or Wholehearted. It’s a choice.

lyrics

Turn out the light to feel you
See me alone in the dark
Don’t it feel like the first time with you
Holding my heart?

We’ll pretend we’re lovers,
Something more than friends
Right beside you but I wanna be closer than this

On your mind
On your mind
That’s where I wanna be all the time
Let me keep you wondering
I wanna be your stranger again

All your secrets your stories
You can keep it all to yourself
Don’t it feel like the real thing
Falling before we fell

To the ground the autumn leaves
Breaking against our skin
Babe it’s cold outside
Won’t you come on in?

On your mind
On your mind
That’s where I wanna be all the time
Let me keep you wondering
I wanna be your stranger again

Let me keep you wondering
