The Strangers lyrics

Beings from galaxies way out in space

Came to Earth at the dawn of the young human race

Came to help us

Moving in starships much faster than light

They would master infinity and other might

Just to help us

God's messengers they may have been

But we Earth people call them the Strangers

Traces of what they had done here before

Traces remain, only traces, not more

So we should know that they really existed, the Strangers

Secrets and signs that are buried in stone

Tell us that we're never lost and alone

That there are others, our brothers, much wiser than we

They disappeared when they thought they could see

That we humans would master our own destiny

They departed (have they gone forever?)

But in the east where the mountains are high

There is many an old man who looks to the sky

And is haunted (will they be returning?)

God's messengers they may have been

But we Earth people call them the Strangers

Traces of what they had done here before

Traces remain, only traces, not more

So we should know that they really existed, the Strangers

(but what was their mission?)

Secrets and signs that are buried in stone (for us)

Tell us that we're never lost and alone (never lost)

That there are others, our brothers, much wiser than we

God's messengers they may have been

But we Earth people call them the Strangers (the Strangers)

Traces of what they had done here before

Traces remain, only traces, not more

So we should know that they really existed, the Strangers

(but what was their mission?)

Secrets and signs that are buried in stone (for us)

Tell us that we're never lost and alone (never lost)

That there are others, our brothers, much wiser than we

(Will they come and we all will be saved?)

Yes there are others, our brothers, but who can they be?

(Will they come and we all will be saved?)

May they come soon (May they come soon)

So we all will be saved (we all must be saved)

All must be saved...
