Secondhand Serenade – Stranger lyrics

Secondhand Serenade – Stranger lyrics

Turn around,
Turn around and fix your eye in my direction
So there is a connection.
I can't speak,
I can't make a sound to somehow capture your attention
I'm staring at perfection.

Take a look at me so you can see
How beautiful you are.

You call me a stranger, you say I'm a danger,
But all these thoughts are leaving you tonight.
I'm broke and abandoned you are an angel
Making all my dreams come true tonight.

I'm confident,
But I can't pretend I wasn't terrified to meet you.
I knew you could see right through me
I saw my life flash right before my very eyes
And I knew just what we'd turn into
I was hoping that you could see

Take a look at me so you can see...

You call me a stranger, you say I'm a danger,
But all these thoughts are leaving you tonight.
I'm broke and abandoned you are an angel
Making all my dreams come true tonight.

You are an angel
Making all my dreams come true tonight.

Take a look at me so you can see
How beautiful you are... {x4}

Your beauty seems so far away
I'd have to write a thousand songs
To make you comprehend how beautiful you are.
I know that I can't make you stay
But I would give my final breath
To make you understand how beautiful you are.
Understand how beautiful you are.

You call me a stranger, you say I'm a danger
But all these thoughts are leaving you tonight.
I'm broke and abandoned you are an angel
Making all my dreams come true tonight.

You call me a stranger...
You say I'm a danger...
You call me a stranger...

"take a look at me so you can see how beautiful you are."
This song is my most favorite song among the secondhand serenade songs. Simply because it struck me and it made me remember of someone. Anyway, I think the girl is afraid to love again but then again this "someone" is trying to make her realize that there is something in her that it really made her appreciate who she is because of that person :))

The song is about two stranger that met once and fell in love. The guy deeply in love with the girl. But as a stranger, he knows his limits, so he tried to capture the girl attention after they met for the 1st time by trying to speak. To assure his not a danger, he compared the girl as an angel that making all his dream come true. I've experienced this situation way back in 2009. And I dedicate this song for my Love of a lifetime. P/s: Rachael, I Love You So Much With All My Heart.

I think this song means that he wants the girl that he likes to notice him but he is too nervous to because she is so perfect, and even though he is usialy very good talking to people it was hard to talk to her when they first met. He also really wanted to talk to her all the time but he was just too nervous, he also thinks that she is so beautiful that he can't discribe her unless he can write 1000 songs about her just to understand how beautiful she is even though it is very inportant to her that she knows that she is amazing. The reason that he calls himself a stranger is beacuse he never talks to her because he is too nervous.

This song is so sweet. You can see it right through its lyrics. The guy here expresses how much she loves this girl, who don't even wanna love him after all and don't have feelings for him. I admired this guy. His love is incomparable. Even if they were apart from each other. He still loves her. This song makes me cry. Damn! Xd.
Haist. I like this song. I hope someone will love me the way this song goes.

I want to be a stranger to the person I love most. So that he can feel the importance of that stranger when it's gone. And on that day I will tell him the truth that the stranger is me. If he can't accept the fact. No regrets. Coz somehow in his life he will realized that this bicth stranger makes my world go round and I experienced to be loved by a stranger like me.
