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 you
I 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 care
Won't you answer this fervent prayer
of a stranger in paradise?
don't send me in dark despair
>from all that i hunger for
But open your angel's arms
to this stranger in paradise
and tell him that he need be
a stranger no more
