In The Arms Of A Stranger (Brian Kierulf Remix) - Mike Posner

I never thought that I would find out We were just lovers in the dark You've known someone for a long time But you never really know who they are It feels like it was only last week I was tripping right into your heart If we're not gonna do this honestly Baby, won't ya give me back what you took apart When I was on my knees in the darkness Yeah, you'd be there to break my fall But now I'm lying here so helpless But somehow I just still want more You left me with nothing Now I'm lying in the arms of a stranger But why do I think of you? You left me with nothing Now I'm looking in the eyes of a stranger Just tryna get over you Yeah, you left me with nothing I chase an old love just to feel love But it gave me nothing that was real No matter what I give, it's not enough But I guess I'm holding on to you still When I was on my knees in the darkness Yeah, you'd be there to break my fall But now I'm lying here so helpless And somehow I just still want more You left me with nothing Now I'm lying in the arms of a stranger But why do I think of you? You left me with nothing Now I'm looking in the eyes of a stranger Just tryna get over you Yeah, you left me with nothing Standing out in the crowd Nobody can hear me now I'm tryna get over you Standing out in the crowd If only you could see me now I'm tryna get over you You left me with nothing And now I'm lying in the arms of a stranger Why do I think of you? You left me with nothing And now I'm looking in the eyes of a stranger Just tryna get over you Yeah, you left me with nothing You left me with nothing Yeah, you left me with nothing And now I'm looking in the eyes of a stranger Just tryna get over you Yeah, you left me with nothing You left me with nothing

I'm not proud But I know that I'm sane Like a grouse Who's resigned to the blade If you doubt And you think that I'm profane I'm in the arms of Mrs. Mark of Cain My memories are all fables So I'm trying to get at the truth And if you think I'm able Well, I have got some news for you I'm in the arms of Mrs. Mark of Cain Hollywood Yes, it's always the same But it feels so damn good So I know I'll be staying No, I'm not underfoot I've been trying to explain I'm in the arms of Mrs. Mark of Cain I'm in the arms of Mrs. Mark of Cain I'm in the arms of Mrs. Mark of Cain

Some ladies love diamonds Fast cars and freedom Trips to the island Castles in Spain Las Vegas card sharks Blues men that blow French harps But no strings to her heart Just the arms of cocaine Yeah, she likes to run With us high riding cowboys She says she feels a whole lot More at home on the range She can handle her feelings In most all situations But she just cannot handle The arms of cocaine Hey, I'm just a rhymer Writing down new phrases Looking for ladies Who know I'm subject to change Content to believing The songs I am singing Help her find her feelings Help her break the chains of cocaine Oh, my lady is special She? s into my kind of music She likes Jim Beam and water Instead of champagne I like Levi's and leathers Making love together No more stormy weather Since she broke the chains of cocaine No more stormy weather Since she broke the chains of cocaine
