Better Stranger Than a Lover lyrics

[Intro]
Pacific, Merci

[Verse 1]
I know you're aware
Of the fact that anything that goes up
Must come down
And I know you're aware
That I've made quite a name
For myself in this town
But there's one thing you should know
Before you get too involved

[Pre-Chrous]
Consider it common courtesy

[Chorus]
I'm a better stranger than a lover
I know you want to take this just a step too far
But we'll just end up disliking each other
You'll leave with a bitter taste and a nasty scar
I'm a better stranger than a lover
I know you want to take this just a step too far
But we'll just end up disliking each other
This is a word to the wise
I'm a better stranger than a lover
[Verse 2]
There's something you should know
About a man with a couple IDs
Going 'round moving so precisely
Breaking hearts cause he's just like me
Trying to tell ya
We're no better than strangers
Listen when I'm talking
It's a word to the wise

[Chorus]
I'm a better stranger than a lover
I know you want to take this just a step too far
But we'll just end up disliking each other
You'll leave with a bitter taste and a nasty scar
I'm a better stranger than a lover
I know you want to take this just a step too far
But we'll just end up disliking each other
This is a word to the wise
I'm a better stranger than a lover

[Bridge]
I know you wanted
So much more from this
I know you're tired
Of dealing with guys like me
But I'm sorry
[Chorus]
I'm a better stranger than a lover
I know you want to take this just a step too far
But we'll just end up disliking each other
You'll leave with a bitter taste and a nasty scar
I'm a better stranger than a lover
I know you want to take this just a step too far
But we'll just end up disliking each other
This is a word to the wise
I'm a better stranger than a lover
