Story Behind The Song
I co-wrote this song with my friend and fellow artist Stacy Stone. She had just gotten out of a relationship and saw that person around town for the first time in months. She realized she used to know them so well and that they were now a stranger, so we wrote this song about that!
Song Description
Heartbreaking song about lost love, breaking up, realizing that after breaking up you don't know who that person is anymore. You used to know them so well and now they're a complete stranger

Lyrics
Verse 1:
I wasn't looking for nobody when you came along
Stopped me dead in my tracks, Hit me like a brick wall
I fell deeper, I fell harder, but too soon I hit the ground
Looked up and you we're no where to be found
Chorus:
I gave you all I had
Still wasn't enough
No ones ever ready for the blow
The words I never said
Keep running through my head
Now you're somebody that I don't know
You're a stranger, you're a stranger
Verse 2:
Keeping secrets that you wouldn't let me in on
and I got skeletons in my closet that made you run so far
Don't blame me, I'm not changing, couldn't be your barbie doll
When you come around, I won't be picking up your call
Chorus
Bridge:
I heard you were asking bout me
You said you messed up and missed your baby
Lesson learned a little too late
Lesson learned the hard way
Chorus:
I gave you all I had
You gave me nothing back
Bet you regret it cause you're all alone
The words you never said
Keep running through your head
Now I'm somebody that you don't know
I'm a stranger, I'm a stranger
I'm your stranger
