"The Visitor" lyrics

"The Visitor"

We lay on towers, on rented time
I'm yours for hours, you're always mine
All things expire, I know you won't stay
But I seem to inspire you to say

Say that you love me, say I'm all you need
In the back of my mind, I know I'm temporary
You're holding me for the night
For some pleasure if that's all we are
Know I'll always be a visitor, mmm
In your arms

It's in my nature to be cynical
I want to be remembered, so I get hysterical
I wanna be that one thing, some' special to you
Say you won't forget me, but you always do

Then say that you love me, say I'm all you need
In the back of my mind, I know I'm temporary
You're holding me for the night
For some pleasure if that's all we are
Know I'll always be a visitor, mmm
In your arms

In your arms
Oh
In your arms

Say that you love me, say I'm all you need
In the back of my mind, I know I'm temporary
You're holding me for the night
For some pleasure if that's all we are
Know I'll always be a visitor
Know I'll always be a visitor
In your arms

SIENNA SPIRO shared the following about "The Visitor" in an Instagram post on the 13th of March, 2026, the song's release date, "It's very hard to put into words what this song means to me. It took me 9 attempts to articulate this feeling I've felt my whole life. [...] I think my whole life I've felt like a visitor. I've always been aware of the temporary nature of things, of life, of time. And in that sense, we are all visitors. But more personally, in relationships, friendships, situations, and moments, I've often felt impermanent."
A twenty-piece string orchestra led and arranged by Peter Rotter ("Oppenheimer") was used in the recording of this track.
