This never was one of the great romances But I thought you'd always have those young boy's eyes And now they look in tired and bitter glances At the ghost of the girl who walks 'round in my disguise I get the feeling that I don't belong here There's no welcome at the window anywhere And I look down for a number on my keychain 'Cause it feels more like a hotel every day There's a stranger in the house, nobody's seen her face But everybody says she's taken my place There's a stranger in the house no one will ever see But everybody says she looks like me And now you say you've got us expectations But I know you also miss those carefree days And for all the angry words that come between us Won't you please understand it when I say There's a stranger in the house, nobody's seen her face But everybody says she's taken my place There's a stranger in the house no one will ever see But everybody says she looks like me Everybody says she looks like me
