Perfect Strangers
Grace Grundy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You were looking at me like you wanted to stay
When I saw you yesterday
I'm not wasting your time I'm not playing no games
I see you
Who knows the secret tomorrow will hold?
We don't really need to know
Cause you're here with me now I don't want you to go
You're here with me now I don't want you to go
Maybe we're perfect strangers
Maybe it's not forever
Maybe intellect will change us
Maybe we'll stay together
Maybe we'll walk away
Maybe we'll realize
We're only human
Maybe we don't need no reason
Maybe we're perfect strangers
Maybe it's not forever
Maybe intellect will change us
Maybe we'll stay together
Maybe we'll walk away
Maybe we'll realize
We're only human
Maybe we don't need no reason Why
No one but you got me feeling this way
There's so much we can't explain
Maybe we're helping each other escape
I'm with you
Who knows the secret tomorrow will hold?
We don't really need to know
Cause you're here with me now, I don't want you to go
You're here with me now, I don't want you to go
Maybe we're perfect strangers
Maybe it's not forever
Maybe intellect will change us
Maybe we'll stay together
Maybe we'll walk away
Maybe we'll realize
We're only human
Maybe we don't need no reason
Maybe we're perfect strangers
Maybe it's not forever
Maybe intellect will change us
Maybe we'll stay together
Maybe we'll walk away
Maybe we'll realize
We're only human
Maybe we don't need no reason Why
Come on, come on, come on
Maybe we don't need no reason Why




Come on, come on, come yeah
Maybe we don't need no reason Why

Overall Meaning

"Perfect Strangers” by Grace Grundy talks about two individuals who are very attracted to each other. As the song starts, the singer tells the listener that they appeared interested in staying but didn’t. The singer is being honest and is not interested in simply wasting anyone’s time or playing games. The song talks about how you cannot predict the future and it is essential to live in the moment. The two individuals might never be together forever, but that might not necessarily be due to a lack of emotions. The song hints that sometimes our intellect can change us or influence our decisions, but it is important even in that case to accept each other as imperfect humans.


Throughout the song, there is a sense of ambiguity. The singer keeps on repeating “Maybe we’re perfect strangers, maybe it’s not forever,” signifying the uncertainty of the future. The song can be interpreted in multiple ways, and there is no definite conclusion. Grace Grundy talks about how nothing can be certain, and we don't need a reason to like someone. The two people might only be helping each other to escape. The singer attributes a lot of importance to their presence and considers it valuable to live in the moment, regardless of the possible outcomes. The chorus signifies how everything is uncertain, and the two people may stay together or walk away, but right now, they are together, and that's what matters.
