Hey Stranger

Описание: I wrote this song a few years ago now, and I always knew I wanted it to be the first track I officially released.

I dreamt the scenario of seeing somebody that is no longer in your life, and having the hope that they would be proud of who you are now and that you have lived up to whoever they thought you might be.

This song really flowed out of me as though it was already written, it took probably less than an hour to finish and I felt as though I said exactly what I needed to say. Those moments are fairly rare in my songwriting as I am so picky with lyrics.

I have held this song in my heart for so long, I can’t even explain how unreal it feels to finally have this track out in the world. Please stream, share amongst your friends, cry in the shower...do with it what you will.

Hey stranger
I haven’t seen you around in a while,
My thoughts they run away with me.
How is it now years have passed us by?
It still feels like a phase to me.

Would you recognise me now I’ve grown, into a person you won’t even know?
Would you turn round with a smile and say... hey stranger?
Tilt your head onto the side and say, I’m the girl you always thought I’d be.
I can’t help but catch my breath then breathe...hey stranger.
I really missed ya.
Hey stranger

I haven’t heard your voice in a while.
The little things escaping me, like butterflies.
It rushes back with one glimpse of your smile.
Like a familiar melody, once memorised

Would you recognise me now I’ve grown,
Into a person you don’t even know?
Would you turn round with a smile and say...hey stranger?
Tilt your head onto the side and say, I’m everything you always hoped I’d be.
I can’t help but catch my breath then breathe...hey stranger.
I really miss ya.
Hey stranger.

Still see you standing by the door where you were before, locked inside my mind.
I wonder if I know, don’t want this to go fading over time.
Still see you standing by the door where you were before, locked inside my mind.
Now memories are still, all I have of you’s fading over time.

Would you recognise me now I’ve grown, into a person you don’t even know?
Would you turn round with a smile and say...hey stranger?
Tilt your head onto the side and say, I’m everything you always hoped I’d be.
I can’t help but catch my breath then breathe...hey stranger.
