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 a danger in paradise
for mortals who stand beside
i'm 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 that fervent prayer
of a stranger in paradise
don't send me in dark despair
from all that i hunger for
But open your angel arms
to a stranger in paradise
and tell her that she need be
a stranger no more
