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 dreaming
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 eye
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
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
