Dear Stranger,

Found the string to pull the parachute

Just before I hit the ground, I stopped and thought of you

Oh, what a lovely view when you′re not dyin'

Letting go of you is terrifyin′

I think the sun has parted with the clouds (ha-ah-ah-ah)

They finally put their differences behind them for a while (ha-ah-ah-ah)

And I can feel the heat kissin' my skin (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

I can feel the blood rushing back in (ah)

Hello again, dear stranger, hello again

I hope you know I've missed ya, how have you been?

I′ve been pretty bad but I am coming back and

I′ll be seeing you again

I said some things to you I did not mean

I promised more than I should have and ruined everything (ha-ah-ah-ah)

But yesterday, oh, yesterday is gone (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Heaven only knows the time I've lost (ah)

Hello again, dear stranger, hello again

I hope you know I′ve missed ya, how have you been?

I've been pretty bad but I am coming back and

I′ll be seeing you again

I am not the same, I will not be the same again

Don't go looking for the girl you loved, her innocence is dead

And I buried all my sin inside a casket in a grave

Here lies someone almost famous who gave up everything

Hello again, dear stranger, hello again

I hope you know I′ve missed ya, how have you been?

I've been pretty bad but I am coming back and

I'll be seeing you

I′ve been pretty bad but I am not as sad and

I′ll be seeing you again
