Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

You wanna disappear in a crowd
Just a stranger in a room
Wanna change your colors just for the night
With no word of it following you, oh
No word of it following you, oh
No word of it following you, oh
No word of it

Ooh, ooh, ooh
You're just a stranger in a room
Ooh, ooh, ooh
You're just a stranger in a room

Tonight I fell for the outline
Of someone I've wanted to know
'Cause here under the blue lights
There's always someone I've wanted to know
With no way of it working back home
No way of it working back home
No way of it working back home
No way of it

And I don't wanna waste my time
On an unfamiliar ride
Been looking in from the outside
Are you coming in?

Ooh, ooh, ooh
You're just a stranger in a room
Ooh, ooh, ooh
You're just a stranger in a room
