JUST TWO STRANGERS PASSING IN THE NIGHT
(Kent Westberry / Hal Harbour)


Mel Tillis & Sherry Bryce - 1974


Here we are for one night only and just to keep from being lonely
We came here with one thing on our minds
Just by chance tonight I met you and tomorrow I'll forget you
But for now we'll search for love we'll never find

We're just two strangers passing in the night
And it's not ours to question wrong or right
'Cause we'll just have a mem'ry come the morning light
Of two strangers passing in the night

Let's not think about tomorrow, just tonight and try to borrow
A little bit of happiness for two
Hold me close, hear my heart beating, it's your sweet love I am needing
And time is running out for me and you

We're just two strangers passing in the night
And it's not ours to question wrong or right
'Cause we'll just have a mem'ry come the morning light
Of two strangers passing in the night
Of two strangers passing in the night
