Stranger In My Glass

[Verse 1]

Last call glow on the bottles

You slide into the empty seat

Laugh lines hiding in the half-light

Voice like velvet over concrete

Your sleeve brushes my shoulder

Time stumbles, spills on the floor

You ask me what I’m drinking

I say, “Whatever you’re here for”

[Chorus]

You’re a stranger in my glass tonight

Spinning circles in the amber light

I don’t know your name

But it’s tasting right

If I fall too fast

Blame the way you laugh

Stirring up the dark

You’re a stranger in my glass

[Verse 2]

Your stories lean across the counter

Little truths dressed up as dares

You trace a ring around the coaster

Say you travel more than you stay

I tell you I collect these moments

Tiny sparks I never chase

You smile, “Then keep this one a secret”

As your fingers find my face (oh)

[Chorus]

You’re a stranger in my glass tonight

Spinning circles in the amber light

I don’t know your name

But it’s tasting right

If I fall too fast

Blame the way you laugh

Stirring up the dark

What if the sun finds us talking

On a sidewalk we don’t recognize

What if this room keeps on breathing

Long after we say goodbye

Would you remember this corner

The way my hand fit your hand

Or will I just be a flavor

You forget when you finally stand (mmm)

[Chorus]

You’re a stranger in my glass tonight

Spinning circles in the amber light

I don’t know your name

But it’s tasting right

If I fall too fast

Blame the way you laugh

Stirring up the dark

You’re a stranger in my glass

[Outro]

Barstools empty, doors are closing

You ask, “So, where to next?”

I say, “Leave it in this moment”

Sip the silence off your breath

One last look, then clink and pass

I go home with

A stranger in my glass
