Audio preview will appear when this track is published.

A song about distance, memory and the people who still live inside us.

Stranger explores the quiet moments after something ends, when the presence is still felt, even in absence. It is about the spaces between people, the memories that linger, and the way we continue to carry someone within us, even when they are no longer part of our daily life.

A man walking alone through a rain soaked street at night

Lyrics

Ah Hmm Ah I wasn't looking. I wasn't waiting. Just another street. Another ordinary day. Then I turned too fast. You stepped my way. And suddenly. There you were. You looked at me. And said, "I'm sorry." That's all. Two words. But something moved inside me. I still can't explain. Like the world went quiet. And forgot my name. Oh stranger. What did you do to me? One look. One moment. And I forgot where I was going. My body stood still. My thoughts ran wild. Something reached straight through me. When I looked into your eyes. Oh stranger. Who are you? I said, "It's okay." And let you walk away. I should have asked your name. I should have made you stay. Instead I watched you disappear. Into faces I had never seen. And every step you took from me. Made the street feel incomplete. Now every unfamiliar face. Makes me turn around. Every footstep behind me. Makes my heart betray me now. And I don't even know. What I'm looking for. A voice. A face. A moment. At some crowded door. If I saw you again. Would you remember me? Or was I only. One second in your day? One look. One moment. And I forgot where I was going. My body stood still. My thoughts ran wild. Something reached straight through me. When I looked into your eyes. Oh stranger. Where did you go? I want to know. Who you are when nobody's watching. What makes you laugh. What keeps you awake. What you believe. What you hide. What you love. And why one look from you. Still lives inside me. Maybe it was nothing. Maybe it was only me. Maybe two people crossed a street. And one forgot to leave. But I still see your eyes. If I find you again. I won't let the moment pass. Ah Hmm
