Lyrics of 'Strangers Again (Unreleased)' by Olivia Rodrigo

Kissing in the car
We come out after dark
Finger interlaced under the checkered tablecloth

I put your jacket on
You make me take it off
You'd rather I be cold than ever dare to show me off

Keep your head down as you walk down the road
And say I love you just in whispers

But I don't wanna be your dirty secret
I don't wanna be your love affair
I don't wanna be your favorite person
Only when no one is there

And I don't wanna be your sweet escape
And I don't wanna say wе're best friends
I don't wanna bе your lover undercover
When you see me at a party
And we're strangers again

Ah, ah, ah (and we're strangers again)
Ah, ah, ah (lover undercover and we're strangers again)

Tell me is it me?
Do you not wanna be seen
With somebody who's young and unassuming as me?
Or are you being strange
So other girls my age
Will hit you up and give you the attention you crave?

I'm tired of meeting you at the back door
I don't wanna say I love you in whispers anymore

I don't wanna be your dirty secret
I don't wanna be your love affair
I don't wanna be your favorite person
Only when no one is there

And I don't wanna be your sweet escape
And I don't wanna say we're best friends
I don't wanna be your lover undercover
When you see me at a party
And we're strangers again

Ah, ah, ah (and we're strangers again)
Ah, ah, ah (lover undercover and we're strangers again)

What is it that makes you do this?
Thinking that if I were different
You'd kiss my cheek in public
Maybe I'm a secret you can't keep

'Cause I don't wanna be your dirty secret
I don't wanna be your love affair
And I don't wanna be your sweet escape
And I don't wanna say we're best friends
I don't wanna be your lover undercover
When you see me at a party
And we're strangers again

Ah, ah, ah (lover undercover and we're, and we're strangers)
Ah, ah, ah (lover undercover and we're strangers again)

I'm your lover undercover and we're strangers, we're strangers again
