Stranger Lyrics - Usher

1 Drummer Boy

2 Said you'll neva give away your heart again

3 I'll be knockin' till you let me in

4 I know you told me, you'd rather be lonely

5 You don't even know me

6 That's why I no longer wanna be a stranger

7 Sorry you put your trust in others

8 And they let you down

9 And all the the secrets and the unknown evidence

10 Now in the open that you found

11 Cried yourself to sleep so many nights

12 Said you'd never again

13 I'm not the one you hold it against

14 Baby, it's not my plan

15 [Bridge]

16 Yeah, you independent as hell

17 And doin' it by yourself

18 But what you gon' do

19 When the nighttime gets cold?

20 I know you told me, you'd rather be lonely

21 You don't even know me

22 I ain't moving out the way for nothing, I'm stubborn

23 [Chorus]

24 'Cause you said you'd never give away your heart again

25 I'll be knockin' till you let me in

26 I know you told me, you'd rather be lonely

27 Tired of being your closest friend

28 You don't even know me

29 That's why I no longer wanna be a stranger

30 Tell me, what I gotta do, what I gotta do

31 What I gotta do, what I gotta do

32 What I gotta do, what I gotta do, yeah

33 [Verse 2]

34 You're stuck inside no matter how hard you try to forget

35 Don't you wish there was a button we could reset

36 And make it easy?

37 But you can't take back the decision that you made to love

38 No, oh, no

39 I know it's the one that you regretting, not so proud of

40 Because you keep tellin' me

41 [Bridge]

42 Yeah, you independent as hell

43 And doin' it by yourself

44 But what you gon' do

45 When the nighttime gets cold?

46 I know you told me, you'd rather be lonely

47 You don't even know me

48 I ain't moving out the way for nothing, I'm stubborn

49 [Chorus]

50 'Cause you said you'd never give away your heart again

51 I'll be knockin' till you let me in

52 I know you told me, you'd rather be lonely

53 Tired of being your closest friend

54 You don't even know me

55 That's why I no longer wanna be a stranger

56 Baby, tell me

57 What I gotta do, what I gotta do

58 What I gotta do

59 Baby, tell me

60 What I gotta do, what I gotta do

61 What I gotta do

62 [Verse 3]

63 I remember the break-up

64 And the condition that my heart was in

65 But I would never surrender, no, no

66 I gotta be stronger, there's nothing time can't heal

67 Girl, I know you're scarred

68 All I ask is a chance to come in and do my part

69 It's nothing but fear and you've been holding on since

70 Too under pressure and I see us sinking in

71 [Chorus]

72 Said you'll neva give away your heart again

73 I'll be knockin' till you let me in

74 I know you told me, you'd rather be lonely

75 You don't even know me

76 That's why I no longer wanna be a stranger

77 What I gotta do, what I gotta do

78 What I gotta do, oh

79 What I gotta do, what I gotta do

80 What I gotta do
