LYRICS ONLY STRANGER IN MY LIFE by DOUG MICHAEL ROOSSIEN 
FEEL LIKE A STRANGER IN MY LIFE    
NOT A SOUL I’D RECOGNIZE 
THIS STRANGER I DON’T KNOW IS ALL ALONE 
I LOOK IN THAT MIRROR, WE USED TO SHARE 
JUST SEE THE GHOST…OF YOU STANDING THERE 
And …THIS BED, WHERE WE USED TO LIE, …HAS GROWN SO COLD 

Till …THIS STRANGER… CAME INTO MY LIFE 
NOW HE’S THE ONLY ONE I RECOGNIZE 
I DON’T EVEN KNOW… DON’T EVEN KNOW… MY OWN SOUL 

DROVE BY OUR DINER THAT WE USED TO KNOW  
ORDERED A PIZZA FOR JUST ONE TO GO
SAT ON THAT PARK BENCH SWALLOWED MY PRIDE TILL I WAS FULL 
READ YOUR LETTER...EVERY WORD 
WHISPERED INSIDE IT’S …JUST WHAT I DESERVED 
MY TEARS, SOAKED ON EVERY WORD, YOU WROTE 

To …THIS STRANGER… Who Came into my life. 
And He’s the only … ONE I recognize. 
DON’T EVEN KNOW, DON’T EVEN KNOW,.MY OWN SOUL 
 FEEL LIKE A STRANGER….(a stranger in my life) 
FEEL LIKE A STRANGER….(a stranger in my life) 

REREAD YOUR LETTER...AGAIN EVERY WORD 
WHISPERED INSIDE … IT’S JUST WHAT I DESERVED 
AS MY TEARS, SOAKED ON EVERY WORD,  EVERY WORD YOU WROTE 
To this stranger …this stranger …in my life 
Feel like a Stranger ,… a stranger …in my life. 

I believe we are closing on an album of our songs together: (six so far) …Stranger in my life, Only Just a Picture, Tears you just can’t cry, Never Sailed Goodbye, Sad River, and Goin’ to Hell,… Thank you Johnny!!

SOMEDAY THE WEIGHT OF THIS YEAR ON MY LIFE WILL BE AN ALBUM FULL OF PAIN,... BUT, RIGHT NOW IT SEEMS LIKE I'M CENTRALLY LOCATED IN HELL

1987 WENT TO Nashville for a “short week” Music row to make the big time … wow … nobody listens in lawsuit land in those days. 1988 WENT TO NASHVILLE for 3 days (surely, I would crack this puzzle and become famous …) so many on benches in front of churches. Frustrated, didn’t sing publicly again basically for 25 years. (after all, where would a singer/song writer, make a name for himself in Karaoke land).
2010 discovered open mics (new world begins). WRITING SINCE …a lot! Had someone to produce me in limited acoustic style for a couple years…I think a few were damn good “Fields of Quiet Soil”. Had a lot of offers to write lyrics and/or sing for a lot of other artists here. (but no recording capability …let alone a decent computer for my own. TODAY, THINGS CHANGE …I’m here to make an impact (got 4 new ones under my belt recently) …plus some old ones you will not be disappointed listening to. Welcome old music fans and artists., potential serious collabs.
I’m locked and loaded this time!
