[Verse 1]
We were just strangers (Strangers) in a public place (In a public place)
We both just saw each other 'round town, had nothin' to say
'Cause we were just hopeless people (Hopeless people), going two different places
That's why I guess I'll never know your, never know your name (Never know your, never know your)
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, we are just strangers caught in a fire
Nothing can change us, each other's mind
Never be something, you'll never be mine
Oh no, oh-oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
Oh, I feel like I've known you my whole life
I know nothin' about you, but that's alright
Yeah, there's somethin' about that look in your eyes
Oh, John Doe, tell me what you want
Oh, I feel like I've known you my whole life
I know nothin' about you, but that's alright
Yeah, there's somethin' about that look in your eyes
Oh, John Doe, tell me what you want, oh
[Verse 2]
You look like an angel, and I should've stayed
Oh, I can feel the butterflies cry, when you walked away (When you walked away)
But we are just broken people, going two different places
That's why I guess I never know your, never know your name (Never know your name)
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, we are just strangers caught in a fire
Nothing can change us, each other's mind
Never be something, you'll never be mine
Oh no, oh-oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
Oh, I feel like I've known you my whole life
I know nothin' about you, but that's alright
Yeah, there's somethin' about that look in your eyes
Oh, John Doe, tell me what you want
Oh, I feel like I've known you my whole life
I know nothin' about you, but that's alright
Yeah, there's somethin' about that look in your eyes
Oh, John Doe, tell me what you want, oh
[Bridge]
Oh, and I could write you a song
Over and over, sing it again
Till we get closer, we could be friends
If I would've known your name, known your name
Write you a song
Over and over, sing it again
Till we get closer, we could be friends
If I would've known your name, known your name
[Outro]
John Doe, ayy
I gotta know your name
I gotta know your name
John Doe, tell me what you want, oh
