Don't Go To Strangers - T. Graham Brown

All over town the bars are closing down

One by one the lights grow dim

I’ve been sitting here drinking

And thinking about you out somewhere with him

He’s just one of the many men you’ve tried

Still you tell me you ain’t satisfied

If you want love

Don’t go to strangers

I’ve seen you out on the prowl like this

Night after night after night

Looking for love but you settle for a kiss

And unknown arms to hold you tight

But it seems no matter what you do

It never turns out like you want it to

If you want love, real true love

If you want love, don’t go to strangers

Every night I have this dream

You’re gonna wake up and understand

That all the love you’ve been looking for

Is right here in your hand, oh my love

How many nights you gonna lay down your sweet love

To someone you don’t really want

Can’t you see you’d be happy with me

I’d be much more than your confidant

All’s I’m the one you tell your troubles to

You’ve told me everything but «I love you»

Oh my love, true love

If you want some love, don’t go to strangers
