Stranger In My House Lyrics

[00:34.36] I don't understand
[00:37.58] You look just like the man
[00:40.99] In the picture by our bed
[00:45.27] The suspense is pounding and clouding up my head
[00:50.50] I'm checking your clothes
[00:53.33] And you wear the same size shoe
[00:57.41] You sleep in his spot
[00:59.21] And you're driving his car
[01:01.48] But I don't know just who you are
[01:05.10] There's a stranger in my house
[01:08.95] It took a while to figure out
[01:13.26] There's no way you could be who you say you are
[01:17.45] You gotta be someone else
[01:20.46] 'Cause he wouldn't touch me like that
[01:24.58] And he wouldn't treat me like you do (you do)
[01:29.72] He would adore me, he wouldn't ignore me
[01:33.42] So, I'm convinced there's a stranger in my house
[01:38.23] So, I'm not sure who you are
[01:40.98] Don't see your shadow around when you walk
[01:45.43] You leave with no kisses, goodbye with no words
[01:49.20] If these walls could talk, they would have nothing to tell
[01:54.32] So, what could it be?
[01:57.03] Is there someone imitating me?
[02:00.98] Could she be taking my place?
[02:03.57] Look me in the face
[02:05.45] And tell me that I'm wrong when I say
[02:09.39] There's a stranger in my house
[02:13.13] Took a while to figure out
[02:17.27] There's no way you could be
[02:18.96] Who you say you are, you gotta be someone else
[02:24.46] 'Cause he wouldn't touch me like that
[02:28.73] And he wouldn't treat me like you do (you do)
[02:33.75] He would adore me, he wouldn't ignore me
[02:37.44] So, I'm convinced there's a (stranger in my house)
[02:41.60] Pop quiz
[02:43.66] Tell me where we first kissed?
[02:47.67] Tell me where my spot is?
[02:51.71] Tell me if I liked it, loved it
[02:57.38] Or could it be
[02:59.65] That the stranger is me?
[03:03.71] Have I changed so drastically?
[03:07.83] Is it I want more for me?
[03:11.31] And you remain the same
[03:13.17] (There's a stranger in my house)
[03:17.29] (Took a while to figure out) it took a while to figure out
[03:21.69] You can't be who you say you are
[03:25.59] You gotta be someone else
[03:28.22] 'Cause he wouldn't touch me like that
[03:32.73] And he wouldn't treat me like you do
[03:37.78] He would adore me, he wouldn't ignore me
[03:41.35] So, I'm convinced there's a stranger in my house
[03:45.14] (There's a stranger in my house) woo
[03:49.10] (Took a while to figure out) took a while to figure out
[03:53.89] You can't be who you say you are
[03:57.42] You gotta be someone else
[04:00.68] He wouldn't touch me like that
[04:04.75] And he wouldn't treat me like you do
[04:09.62] He would adore me, he wouldn't ignore me
[04:13.61] I'm convinced there's a stranger in my house
[04:22.50]
[04:25.42] Oh-ooh-ah-ooh, ooh, oh-yea
[04:36.01]
