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
mortals who stand beside
an angels like us
i saw her face
and i ascended
out of the common place
into the rarest
somewhere in space
i hang suspended
until i know
there's a chance that she cares
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 strangers in paradise
and tell us that we need be
strangers no more
i saw her face
and i ascended
out of the common place

somewhere in space

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 strangers in paradise
and tell us that we need be
strangers no more
