There's a stranger in my home that I've never known before And I don't know why she's there she just walked in through the door Why she stays and suffers so is something I will never know She's a lonely soul this stranger in my home.
I'm that stranger in my home, I'm the one left in the cold I'm no longer loved or wanted I don't have to be told I can tell by the way that I'm treated day by day That I am just a stranger in my home.

Not so very long ago there were tender nights to live We were happy in our home we had all that life could give Then one day the quarrel came I don't know who was to blame I only know that I'm a stranger in my home.
I'm that stranger in my home, I'm the one left in the cold I'm no longer loved or wanted I don't have to be told I can tell by the way that I'm treated day by day That I am just a stranger in my home.
Can a woman describe a heart that's been broken all apart Can she face her children each day and go on the same ol' way Can she brush aside the tears and go on and live the years a forgotten soul Just a stranger in her own home.
