'One Stranger' - Human Thoughts

This short-lived song (which would have been called "A Stranger" but the title was taken) has been subsumed by the written-later-that-evening:

"Two Strangers"

One Stranger

Calling a stranger across town on your phone -
Calling some stranger to "Yes, take me home."
His evening song lingers, his laugh echoes still
And you wish you had dared say "Yes, yes I will."

Getting home alone with her eyes not let go -
What was that she said that she liked over and o'er?
Her presence alloyed molten metal that shone
And you walked away now you guessed this wrong

Calling a stranger across town
On your phone in the middle of the night
