He rode in with the sunset and turned the TV on
We didn't talk through supper and I went to bed alone
I was softly awakened by a touch of ecstasy
Was I only dreamin' or did he make sweet love to me
Who was that stranger that rode through here last night
He slipped into our room when I turned out the light
Who was that stranger with my ring on his hand
Whoever he was I hope he'll ride this way again
This morning over coffee, that look was in his eyes
His touch was so familiar when he kissed me goodbye
I watched him through the window and as he rode away
He left me with a memory that I dream about all day, yeah
Who was that stranger that rode through here last night
He slipped into our room when I turned out the light
Who was that stranger with my ring on his hand
Whoever he was I hope he'll ride this way again
I know that stranger that rode through here last night
I bet you a dollar he'll be back home tonight
