I've seen you here before 
But you've never noticed me
I've seen you crying alone and 
It makes me sad to see
If you feel the way I do
Then tears won't comfort you 
Would a stranger do?
You want the world to let you be 
But you have to realise 
Don't be afraid of company 
'Cause it's just a compromise
I know it's a risk we're taking
But think of the time we've been wasting
Scuse me for asking lady 
I don't really mean to intrude
Forgive me for asking 
Would a stranger do?
Your heart says go find someone new
But it whispers don't get hurt
Well I'd like to find somebody too
Can I take a chance on you 
I know it's a risk we're taking
But think of the time we've been wasting 
Scuse me for asking lady 
I don't really mean to intrude
Forgive me for asking
Would a stranger do. .. 
Would a stranger do for you?
Would a stranger do?
