You never asked for much but I loved you just the same   You with your quiet eyes and a face without a name You stood there staring as I sang another song We were strangers then we weren't strangers long  It was all that I could do not to turn away and hide   You stared right through me as you stood there at my side The things I read in those blue eyes they seemed so calm and strong We were strangers then we weren't strangers long  Now we weren't strangers long though we never spoke at all But in your eyes I saw you knew we were heading for a fall I love you so completely I never thought it might be wrong We were strangers then but we weren't strangers long We weren't strangers long though we never spoke at all In your eyes I saw you knew we were heading for a fall I knew you so completely I never thought it might be wrong   We were strangers then but we weren't strangers long Just like a book when it's read between the lines It's the words that weren't spoken that told me you were mine And now the pages turn but the story still goes on   We were strangers then we weren't strangers long
