(Intro)

(Verse)
However you feel
Whatever it takes
Whenever it's real
Whatever awaits
Whatever you need
However so slight
Whenever it's real
Whenever it's right

(Pre-Chorus)
I've been thinking long and hard about the things you said to me,
like a bitter stranger,
and now I see the long, the short, the middle and what's in between,
I could spit on a stranger,

(Chorus 1)
(pull me out)
you're a bitter stranger.
(pull me out)

(Verse)
Whatever you feel
Whatever it takes
Whenever it's real
Whatever awaits me
Whatever you need
However so slight
Wherever it leads
Whenever it's right

(Pre-Chorus)
Honey I'm a prize and you're a catch
and we're a perfect match,
like two bitter strangers,
and now I see the long,
the short of it and I can make it last,
I could spit on a stranger,

(Chorus 2)
(pull me out)
you're a bitter stranger,
(pull me out)
I could spit on a stranger,
(pull me out)
you're a bitter stranger.
(pull me out)
I could spit on a stranger,
(pull me out)
you're a bitter stranger.

(Outro)
I see the sunshine in your eyes,
I'll try the things you'll never try,
I'll be the one that leaves
you high...high...high
