"Strangers" lyrics

"Strangers"

Well I haven't got all the words down yet
So I'll give you the ones
That I don't forget
And you took me back
But I must admit
Where'd you come from?
And where are you goin'?

And you were the one for me last night
When the whiskey was gone
And the glasses dry
And you sat at my table
And we talked for a while
And I knew you
Though I'd never known you

I'll sing you a song if you want me to
And the verses aren't quite on
But the words are true
And I mean you no harm
You might think I do
How I wish
You would change your mind

We sat in the back of a smoke filled room
And the piano
She played a worn out tune
And you wispered to me
That you'd be leaving soon
When I turned to answer
You were gone
