Stranger in Paradise lyrics

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

an angel like you.

I saw your face

and I ascended

out of the common place

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 strangers in paradise

and tell him that he need be

a stranger no more.
