Tall, Dark Handsome Stranger

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tall, Dark, Handsome Stranger is a track performed by the rock band, Heart, for their 1990 album, Brigade. In the song's lyrics, a woman describes how she's so sick and tired of men trying to act cool and pretending to be everything a woman might want. The chorus is directed toward a man who is different from those in her past:

I've had the tall, dark, handsome, stranger

I've had the devil in disguise

I've been attracted to the danger

I was never satisfied

I know what I want and I want what I see in your eyes
