With someone else perhaps in time
I'll find a little peace of mind
And maybe someday I'll get over you
And if in time I hear your name
It may be hard to bear the pain
But I'll go to a stranger before I'll come to you

For a stranger might show a little sympathy
And that's so much more than you have ever done for me
And to stay away from you won't be an easy thing to do
But I'll go to a stranger before I'll come to you
