Stranger In Paradise

Take my hand

I'm a stranger in paradise

All lost in a wonderland

A stranger in paradise

If I stand starry-eyed

That's the danger in paradise

For mortals who stand beside an angel like youI saw your face and I ascended

Out of the commonplace into the rare

Somewhere in space I hang suspended

Until I know there's a chance that you careWon't you answer this fervent prayer

Of a stranger in paradise?

Don't send me in dark despair

From all that I hunger forBut open your angel's arms

To this stranger in paradise

And tell him that he need be

A stranger no more
