Stranger At The Crosswalk

You were just a face in a crowd

Phone in your hand

Head in the clouds

Green light blinking

We both stayed

Like the whole street forgot to change

I don’t even know your name

But my heart jumped anyway

If I walk

Will this just fade?

If I stay

Will everything change?

How am I this gone for a stranger?

One look and I’m out of control (oh-oh)

My guard fell fast

Like paper

You smiled and it felt like home

Don’t know your story

Or your chaos

But something says I’ve known you all along

How am I this gone for a stranger?

And somehow it feels so right

Not wrong

Coffee in your hand

Little stain on your sleeve

You laughed it off

Said “it’s always me”

We traded bad jokes

Favorite songs

Worst days

Like we’d been talking for years

Not minutes in place

I still don’t know where you’re from

But my doubt’s already gone

Is this crazy

Is this fate?

Either way

I’m wide awake

How am I this gone for a stranger?

One look and I’m out of control (hey)

My guard fell fast

Like paper

You smiled and it felt like home

Don’t know your story

Or your chaos

But something says I’ve known you all along

How am I this gone for a stranger?

And somehow it feels so right

Not wrong

Maybe in an hour we’ll forget this corner

Walk back to our old lives like it’s over

Or maybe years from now

We’ll tell this story

“How we met at that light and stole each other’s morning” (oh)

How am I this gone for a stranger?

One look and I’m out of control

My guard fell fast

Like paper

You smiled and it felt like home

Don’t know your story

Or your chaos

But something says I’ve known you all along

How am I this gone for a stranger?

Guess some hearts only need

One look to belong
