From the start I took the sweet love that she gave me
And gave no thought to what tomorrow bring
I only gave her what I had to give her
Then she met someone who gave her everything

A perfect stranger walked right into her world
A stranger who was perfect in her eyes
He understood just what it took to take her
And keep her happy with him at his side

Just think a perfect stranger someone who just met her
Can understand her better than I do
He always tries to please her lets her know he needs her
And that's something that I know I didn't do

[ steel + fiddle ]
If I only had a chance again I'd take her
Away from him like he took her from me
But I can see that chance for me is over
Cause her perfect stranger loves her perfectly

To think a perfect stranger someone who just met her...
And that's something that I know I didn't do
