(Strangers in the night)
Ooh
(Strangers in the night, strangers) Woo
(Strangers in the night)
Woah
(Strangers in the night, strangers)

Strangers in the night, exchanging glances
Wondering in the night what were the chances
We would fall in love before the night was through?
(Before the night was through, I fall in love with you)

Something in your eyes was so exciting
And in your smile (your smile), ooh, inviting (so inviting)
In my heart I knew I must have you

Strangers in the night (strangers in the night), lonely people
Strangers in the night (strangers in the night) up to the moment
We said our first hello (hello) little did we know (know)
Love was just a glance away, embracing dance away
(It's just a glance away)
It's just a glance away
(It's just a glance away)
It's just a chance away (woo)

(Dancin') Dancin', dancin' in the night
Stranger, c'mon, c'mon, treat a stranger right
(Ooh, I can't stop dancin') I'm dancin', dancin' in the night
Stranger, I say what's on my mind

Let us be lovers (lovers)
Yeah, it's gonna be all right (all right)
For strangers in the

(Dancin', dancin' in the night) Yeah
(Hello stranger) Ooh
(Ooh, I can't stop dancin') I'm dancin', dancin' in the night
Hello stranger c'mon, whoa
(Look at me I'm) Dancin', I'm dancin' in the night
Hello stranger, woo
(Here I am I'm dancin') I'm dancin' in the night
Hello stranger
(Please be kind) Oh whoa
(Oh, please be kind) Oh whoa

Doo-be-doo-be-doo don't want to be
Doo-be-doo-be-doo don't want to be strangers
(Strangers) No, doo-be-doo-be-doo don't want to be
Doo-be-doo-be-doo don't want to be strangers
(Strangers, strangers) Doo-be-doo-be-doo don't want to be
Doo-be-doo-be-doo don't want to be strangers
(Strangers) No, no, no
(Doo-be-doo-be-doo don't want to be)
(Doo-be-doo-be-doo don't want to be strangers)
(Strangers, strangers)
(Doo-be-doo-be-doo don't want to be)
(Doo-be-doo-be-doo don't want to be strangers)
(Strangers) Woo

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
