Songs that have the word "stranger" in them

My last post reminded me of one of my favourite Madonna songs:

Crazy For You"

Swaying room as the music starts
Strangers making the most of the dark
Two by two their bodies become one

I see you through the smokey air
Can't you feel the weight of my stare
You're so close but still a world away
What I'm dying to say, is that

[Chorus:]

I'm crazy for you
Touch me once and you'll know it's true
I never wanted anyone like this
It's all brand new, you'll feel it in my kiss
I'm crazy for you, crazy for you

Trying hard to control my heart
I walk over to where you are
Eye to eye we need no words at all

Slowly now we begin to move
Every breath I'm deeper into you
Soon we two are standing still in time
If you read my mind, you'll see

[chorus]

It's all brand new, I'm crazy for you
And you know it's true
I'm crazy, crazy for you

"Strangers On A Train" - David Nail

Sometimes you see someone
When you’ve already got someone
Still you wonder what if they had come
Along, a long time ago
You know that they’re feeling it too
But there ain’t nothin’ you gonna do
Except for imagine who you might have been with them
They’re not tryin’ to make it last
Just enjoying each second as they pass

‘Cause as these little brick houses are flying by
‘Neath the flickering of the railcar lights
I let myself get lost in your eyes a while
Not another passenger in here can see
How in my mind you’re holdin’ me
While outside the cold makes snow out of the rain
But in here were just strangers on a train

Start to smile, I turn my head
It’s kinda like a spider’s web
I just can’t seem to sake you off
So I look your way again
You’re staring off trying to pretend
Like you haven’t noticed me at all
But don’t feel guilty it don’t mean much
The truth is the two of us ain’t never gonna touch

‘Cause as these little brick houses are flying by
‘Neath the flickering of the railcar lights
I let myself get lost in your eyes a while
Not another passenger in here can see
How in my mind you’re holdin’ me
While outside the cold makes snow out of the rain
But in here were just strangers on a train

Brakes grind, I gotta go
Reach down pick up my coat
Afraid that you might stop me in the aisle
Watch my breath rising in the air
I can’t do nothing but just stand there
As you press your hand against the windowpane
And I wave to my stranger on a train
My stranger on a train
 
There's a stranger in my house, Tamia

I don't understand you look just like the man in the picture by our bed, the suspense is clouding and pounding up my head

I'm checking your clothes and you wear the same size shoe
You sleep in his spot you're driving his car but I don't know just who you are

"There's a stranger in my house, took a while to figure out

You can't be who you say you are, you gotta be someone else
Cause he wouldn't touch me like that, and he wouldn't treat me like you do, he wouldn't ignore me, he wouldn't ignore me, so I'm convinced there's a stranger in my house... "

so what could it be, is there someone imitating me could she be taking my place look me in the face and tell me that I'm wrong when I say...

Chorus. " ..."

Pppopp quiz... Quick tell me where we first kissed tell me where (inappropriate), tell me if I (inappropriate), loved it...

Or could it be that the stranger is me--e, have I changed so drastically? Is it I want more for me... And you remained the same?

Duran Duran's "Seventh Stranger" from the 7 and the Ragged Tiger album

Those words are all remainders
Echoes growing in the heart of twilight
They lay back laughing at naivety's star
Awaken all those whispers in the dusty shadow of a
passing favour
I wouldn't say that you were ruthless or right
I couldn't see from so far
Was I chasing after rainbows
One thing for sure you never answered when I called
And I wiped away the water from my face
To look through the eyes of a stranger
For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd
Trading in my shelter for danger
I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down
In the eyes of a stranger
Can't tell the real from reflections
When all these faces look the same to me
In every city such a desolate dream
Some days are strange to number
some say the seventh sounds a little bit stranger
 
STRANGER IN PARADISE
Take my hand I'm a stranger in paradise
All lost in a wonderland
A stranger in paradise
If I stand starry-eyed
That's a danger in paradise
For mortals who stand beside an angel like

I saw your face and I ascended
Out of the commonplace into the rare
Somewhere in space I hang suspended
Until I know there's a chance that you care

Won't you answer this fervent prayer
Of a stranger in paradise?
Don't send me in dark despair
From all that I hunger for

But open your angel's arms
To the stranger in paradise
And tell him that we need be
Our stranger no more
 
RED HEADED STRANGER - Willie Nelson
The red headed stranger from Blue Rock, Montana
Rode into town one day
And under his knees was a ragin' black stallion
And walkin' behind was a bay

The red headed stranger had eyes like the thunder
And his lips, they were sad and tight
His little lost love lay asleep on the hillside
And his heart was heavy as night

Don't cross him, don't boss him
He's wild in his sorrow
He's ridin' an' hidin' his pain
Don't fight him, don't spite him
Just wait till tomorrow
Maybe he'll ride on again

A yellow haired lady leaned out of her window
An' watched as he passed her way
She drew back in fear at the sight of the stallion
But cast greedy eyes on the bay

But how could she know that this dancin' bay pony
Meant more to him than life
For this was the horse that his little lost darlin'
Had ridden when she was his wife

Don't cross him, don't boss him
He's wild in his sorrow
He's ridin' an' hidin' his pain
Don't fight him, don't spite him
Just wait till tomorrow
Maybe he'll ride on again

The yellow haired lady came down to the tavern
An' looked up the stranger there
He bought her a drink, an' he gave her some money
He just didn't seem to care

She followed him out as he saddled his stallion
An' laughed as she grabbed at the bay
He shot her so quick, they had no time to warn her
She never heard anyone say

Don't cross him, don't boss him
He's wild in his sorrow
He's ridin' an' hidin' his pain
Don't fight him, don't spite him
Just wait till tomorrow
Maybe he'll ride on again

The yellow haired lady was buried at sunset
The stranger went free, of course
For you can't hang a man for killin' a woman
Who's tryin' to steal your horse

This is the tale of the red headed stranger
And if he should pass your way
Stay out of the path of the ragin' black stallion
And don't lay a hand on the bay

Don't cross him, don't boss him
He's wild in his sorrow
He's ridin' an' hidin' his pain
Don't fight him, don't spite him
Just wait till tomorrow
Maybe he'll ride on again
