He′s a stranger I don′t know Where he′s coming from Is he a danger to me or just Another man He knows magic or maybe He′s a charlatan Is it a sly trick he plays does He have a plan
He said he came from a World beyond my dreams From the depths of my mind He said he′d burn like star And disappear But leave his spirit behind
He′s a stranger a man with a Destiny A rearranger of fate a Changer of lives They will erase him for they Are all afraid of him They′re gonna trace him and Then cause him to die
He said he′d cure me I do Not have to die I hold my fate in my hands He said he′d always be there Everytime I′d cry One day I would understand
He was a stranger they shot Him and now he′s dead I′m out of danger he lives on Inside my head
He said he came from a World beyond my dreams From the depths of my mind He said he′d burn like star And disappear But leave his spirit behind
He said he′d cure me I do Not have to die I hold my fate in my hands He said he′d always be there Everytime I′d cry One day I would understand
And yes I believe in what we had But words got in the way And only yesterday As I was leaving Lord knows I′ve tried to say but I′ve Heard a million conveprsations Going where they′ve been before Seen the way that careful lingers Undecided at the door
CHORUS
And all I know for sure All I know for real Is knowing doesn′t mean so much When placed against the feeling The heat inside When bodies meet When fingers touch
All my words are secondhand and Useless in the face of this Rationale and rhyme and reason Pale beside a single kiss And I′ve heard so many things I Fail to understand at all I′d settle anytime for Unknown footsteps in the hall outside
CHORUS
Because the world is cruel and Promises are broken Don′t try to tell me Anything don′t try to tell me You′ll be true to me you know the Real truth is never spoken And I know the world is cold but If you hold on tight to what you Find you might not mind too much though Even this must pass away and Memories may last for years but Names are just for souveniers Some kind of angel let me Look into your eyes Don′t give me whys and wherefores Reason or surprise I don′t care for words that don′t belong And I don′t care what you′re called Tell me later if at all I can wait a long long time Before I hear another love song
Come here I think you′re beautiful My door is open wide Some kind of angel come inside
Come here I think you′re beautiful I think you′re beautiful beautiful Some kind of angel come inside
Come here I think you′re beautiful I think you′re beautiful Some kind of angel come inside
Come here I think you′re beautiful My door is open wide Some kind of stranger come inside
Come here I think you′re beautiful I think you′re beautiful beautiful Some kind of stranger come inside
Come here I think you′re beautiful I think you′re beautiful Some kind of stranger come inside
I can’t believe that it’s over I lost this one Tonight I’ll run free I wish I had someone to guide me And pull me up ‘cause the lights can’t find me Stranger Take me home
I wish I had already found you I’ve wasted time My mind had grown black I wish I had already known you You’ll save my life You brought my faith back Stranger Take me home Stranger
And I will love you Only for tonight I don’t know you But it’s all right Let me show you heaven Stranger take me home
Somehow I feel like I’ve know you all my life And we have been together since the dawn of time I’ve been missing vital pieces of the heart You might be the answer …
Cold is the night Lonely till dawn Cry for the light For the love that won′t come You said that you′d never Leave me alone
I gave you my heart You cried for my soul An angel won′t come This devil won′t go Something is wrong I just can′t get away
Living on the street, I′m no stranger to love Why can′t you see I′m no stranger to love But I′m a stranger in your arms Yes, I′m a stranger in your arms
Maybe it′s right But I just can′t understand The hurt that I feel For my love second hand I know I should leave But I just can′t walk away
Living on the street, I′m no stranger to love Why can′t you see I′m no stranger to love Living on the street, I′m no stranger to love I′m a stranger in your arms Living on the street, I′m no stranger to love Why can′t you see I′m no stranger to love
I was wandering in the rain Mask of life, feelin′ insane Swift and sudden fall from grace Sunny days seem far away Kremlin′s shadow belittlin′ me Stalin′s tomb won′t let me be On and on and on it came Wish the rain would just let me be
Chorus: How does it feel (How does it feel) How does it feel How does it feel When you′re alone And you′re cold inside
Here abandoned in my fame Armageddon of the brain KGB was doggin′ me Take my name and just let me be Then a beggar boy called my name Happy days will drown the pain On and on and on it came Again, and again, and again... Take my name and just let me be
Chorus (Repeat)
Like a stranger in Moscow Like a stranger in Moscow We′re talkin′ danger We′re talkin′ danger baby Like a stranger in Moscow We′re talkin′ danger We′re talkin′ danger baby Like a stranger in Moscow I′m livin′ lonely I′m livin′ lonely baby A stranger in Moscow
Down, down, down Always make the same mistakes, again Down, down, always down Always make the same mistake Talk is cheap, but you′re talking fast Never take the time to think of where it will end Walking tall, don′t look back I don′t know which way it′s gonna lead, me baby I try so hard but I can′t understand Lead, me baby Just help me get my feet on the ground Down, down, down Wanderin′ through the places that we both used to go Round, round always round Chase me and sedate me now but don′t let me go Restless sleep, locked in my lonely room Empty arms are waiting for the morning to come In the deep, where my dreams come true Take care now, keep you now, but Lead me baby I try so hard but I can′t understand Lead, me baby Oh, but help me get my feet on the ground, yes, help me Oh, help me baby, oh help me I can′t stay down for too long now baby I can′t stay down for too long now baby No, yeah, whoa yes If I cry [I′m crying?] well, it′s, it′s ′cos I′m lonely You know I′m only ever lonely without you If I cry well, it′s ′cos I′m lonely ′Cos I can be so lonely, I can be, I can be, I can be ... Push, push, push, ooh
Snow is falling from the sky - In the middle of July Sun was shining in my eyes again last night Alarm goes off without a sound - the silence is so loud - something isn′t right
Footsteps echo down the hall - no one′s there at all Dial your number but your voice says "I′m not home" Everything is inside out - I don′t know what it′s about
It keeps getting stranger by the day stranger by the day it keeps getting stranger by the day stranger by the day
Going for a walk outside - to see what I can find No reflections in the windows I pass by It feels hotter in the shade - water′s running up the drain - something′s going on
Conversations with a mime - stared at by the blind Imagination must be working overtime The world is upside down - everything is turned around
It keeps getting stranger by the day stranger by the day it keeps getting stranger by the day stranger by the day
By the time I reach your door - I can′t take anymore I just happened to be in your neighborhood I′m the one who gets surprised - I don′t believe my eyes - your alibi′s no good
Whatever happened to the world - whatever happened to the girl I thought I knew It just can′t be true - I guess I′m losing you
stranger by the day stranger by the day it keeps getting stranger by the day stranger by the day stranger by the day stranger by the day stranger by the day yeah...
Who I am, we′re told to toil at mouth Now louder answers the firmest fist and kisses Ask me again How gameshow season never ends The same old reason I won′t win Suspended in this animation I could use a new vacation Aimlessly the nameless and the faceless go to make up Tell me I′m not spending too much time on happy endings And my life does not rely on how much love you might be lending me Above there′s so much I′m depending on, remembering more instead You send me door to door to have the family cat attack the strangers back by popular demand, stand as you were Before you saw your parting gift in stores You poured your empty heart in it and finished what you started When you practiced and rehearsed To find your God before He finds first In dirty words and poison dreams like girls who flirt while boys are teens They′re only asking for one thing It′s never only make believe to me
Tell me I′m not spending too much time on happy endings And my life does not rely on how much love you might be lending me Above there′s so much I′m depending on, remembering more instead of war with me, myself and I; I′m headed for the stranger in the sky Resort in Paradise Now louder answer the wish and kiss bids goodbye
It might be hard to be lovers But it′s harder to be friends Baby, pull down the covers It′s time you let me in Maybe light a couple candles I′ll just go ahead and lock the door If you just talk to me baby Till we ain′t strangers anymore
Lay your head on my pillow I sit beside you on the bed Don′t you think its time we say Some things we haven′t said It ain′t too late to get back to that place Back to where, we thought it was before Why don′t you look at me Till we ain′t strangers anymore
Sometimes it′s hard to love me Sometimes it′s hard to love you too I know it′s hard believing That love can pull us through It would be so easy To live your life
With one foot out the door Just hold me baby Till we ain′t strangers anymore
[Solo]
It′s hard to find forgiveness When we just turn out the light It′s hard to say you′re sorry When you can′t tell wrong from right It would be so easy To spend your whole damn life Just keeping score So let′s get down to it baby There ain′t no need to lie
Tell me who you think you see When you look into my eyes Lets put our two hearts back together And we′ll leave the broken pieces on the floor Make love with me baby Till we ain′t strangers anymore
We′re not strangers anymore We′re not strangers We′re not strangers anymore
It might be hard to be lovers But its harder to be friends Baby pull down the covers Its time you let me in Maybe light a couple candles Ill just go ahead and lock the door If you just talk to me baby Til we aint strangers anymore
Lay your head on my pillow I sit beside you on the bed Dont you think its time we say Some things we havent said It aint too late to get back to that place Back to where, we thought it was before Why dont you look at me Til we aint strangers anymore
Sometimes its hard to love me Sometimes its hard to love you too I know its hard believing That love can pull us through It would be so easy To live your life With one foot out the door Just hold me baby Til we aint strangers anymore
[Solo]
Its hard to find forgivness When we just turn off the lights Its hard to say youre sorry When you cant tell wrong from right It would be so easy To spend your whole damn life Just keeping score So lets get down to it baby There aint no need to lie
Tell me who you think you see When you look into my eyes Lets put our two hearts back together And we′ll leave the broken pieces on the floor Make love with me baby Til we aint strangers anymore
We′re not strangers anymore We′re not strangers We′re not strangers anymore
Look around for a means to dissuade her attention. Can′t remember the places and names that she mentions.
My words are falling apart in spite of me. I′m stepping out of the light so she can′t see. Don′t think I′ll miss her, But I want to take her picture When I found a place Where she can′t find me.
And she′s falling asleep as she′s walking with strangers. Talking cheap as the flies on the wall entertain her.
Her world is falling apart in front of me. She′s stepping into the light, but she can′t see. It′s hard to miss her when she′s posing for a picture, But I found a place where she can′t find me.
My words are falling apart in spite of me. I′m stepping out of the light so she can′t see. Don′t think I′ll miss her, But I want to take her picture When I found a place Where she can′t find me.
She′s got luck all in her eye He knows her cat-call Can′t escape from telling lies I heard her saying
Heeeey, mind if I take this chair? Heeeey, mind if I take this chair?
He drops a pause She looks annoyed But she′s so mean He thinks she has to be the one
Taken by a stranger Stranger things are starting to begin Lured into the danger Trip me up and spin me round again
You got some coffee on your collar And you forgot to comb your hair I can′t wait till I do better You′re here and I don′t care Can′t help it if you like it cause I won′t be here tomorrow No-one ever told you that you wouldn′t be rejected
Taken by a stranger Stranger things are starting to begin Lured into the danger (Danger is a risky business) Trip me up and spin me round again
Put the blindfold on his eyes She saw him peek through Can′t imagine her disguise I heard her saying
Heeeey, mind if I take this chair? Yeah, see if I care.
Taken by a stranger Stranger things are starting to begin Lured into the danger (Danger is a risky business) Trip me up and spin me round again
Hello blue stranger, sittin′ there all alone With your glass of sorrow, you seem so far from home Maybe you will let me, buy a round or two I′m a blue stranger too
Well, hello blue stranger, I haven′t seen your around But I know every reason, for leavin′ town We might know each other, before the night is through I′m a blue stranger too
And strangers fall in love, all the time All lovers were strangers once Just like us, a little unsure, chattin′ out hi′s
Well, hello blue stranger, will you take a chance Well I might be mistaken, but I see meaning in your glance Maybe this could be the start of something new I′m a blue stranger too
(Keith′s guitar solo)
And strangers fall in love, everyday All lovers were strangers once Just like us, a little unsure of our little ways
Well, hello blue stranger, sittin′ there all alone With your glass of sorrow, you seem so far from home Maybe you will let me, buy you a round or two I′m a blue stranger too
Hello blue stranger, Hello blue stranger Hello blue stranger.
Nobody believes me when I tell them that you′re out of your mind Nobody believes me when I tell them that there′s so much you hide You treat me like a queen when we go out, wanna show everyone what our love′s about All wrapped up in me whenever there is a crowd But when no ones around
(Chorus) There′s no kindness in your eyes The way you look at me, it′s just not right I can tell whats going on this time Theres a stranger in my life You′re not the person that I once knew Are you scared to let them know it′s you If they could only see you like I do Then they would see a stranger too
Did I ever do anything that was this cruel to you Did I ever make you wonder who was standing in the room You made yourself look perfect in everyway So when this goes down, I′m the one that will be blamed Your plan is working so you can just walk away Baby your secret′s safe
Theres no kindness in your eyes The way you look at me, it′s just not right I can tell whats going on this time Theres a stranger in my life You′re not the person that I once knew Are you scared to let ′em know it′s you? If they could only see you like I do Then they would see a stranger too
Such a long way back, from this place we are at When I think of all the time I′ve wasted, I could cry Theres no kindness in your eyes The way you look at me, it′s just not right I can tell whats going on this time
Theres a stranger in my life You′re not the person that I once knew Are you scared to let ′em know it′s you If they could only see you like I do Then they would see a stranger too
Theres no kindness in your eyes The way you look at me, it′s just not right I can tell what′s going on this time There′s a stranger in my life You′re not the person that I once knew Are you scared to let ′em know it′s you If they could only see you like I do Then they would see a stranger too
Strangers in the night exchanging glances Wond′ring in the night What were the chances we′d be sharing love Before the night was through.
Something in your eyes was so inviting, Something in your smile was so exciting, Something in my heart, Told me I must have you.
Strangers in the night, two lonely people We were strangers in the night Up to the moment When we said our first hello. Little did we know Love was just a glance away, A warm embracing dance away and -
Ever since that night we′ve been together. Lovers at first sight, in love forever. It turned out so right, For strangers in the night.
(Instrumental Break)
Love was just a glance away, A warm embracing dance away.
Ever since that night we′ve been together. Lovers at first sight, in love forever. It turned out so right, For strangers in the night.
Goddamn this dusty room This hazy afternoon I′m breathing in the silence like I′ve never before This feeling that i get This one last cigarette As i lay awaken and wait for you to come through the door Oh maybe, maybe, maybe i can share it with you I behave i behave i behave so i can share it with you
You are not alone dear loneliness You forgot but i remember this So stranger, stranger, stranger things have happened i know I′m not alone dear loneliness I forgot that i remember this So stranger, stranger, stranger things have happened i know, oh ohh, oh ohhh
And i dream about somewhere, a smoke will fill the air As i lay awaken and wait for you to walk out that door
I can change, i can change, i can change But who you want me to be? I′m the same, i′m the same, i′m the same, what do you want me to be?
You are not alone dear loneliness You forgot but i remember this So stranger, stranger, stranger things have happened i know oh ohh, oh ohh
I′m not alone dear loneliness I forgot that i remember this You′re not alone dear loneliness You forgot but i remember this Oh stranger, stranger, stranger things have happened i know
I′m not alone dear loneliness I forgot that i remember this Oh stranger, stranger, stranger things have happened i know oh ohh, oh ohh, oh ohhh
Can you remember remember my name As I flow through your life A thousand oceans I have flown And cold spirits of ice All my life I am the echo of your past
I am returning the echo of a point in time Distant faces shine A thousand warriors I have known And laughing as the spirits appear All your life Shadows of another day
And if you hear me talking on the wind You′ve got to understand We must remain Perfect Strangers
I know I must remain inside this silent well of sorrow
A strand of silver hanging through the sky Touching more than you see The voice of ages in your mind Is aching with the dead of the night Precious life (your tears are lost in falling rain)
And if you hear me talking on the wind You′ve got to understand We must remain Perfect Strangers
All alone, a rainy night No one around but I feel someone watching me I look around, the street is bare nobody there I wonder what it could be As I turned to walk away Suddenly I saw his face Never minding that we were alone Didn′t care about the time, at the moment I was feeling fine I was looking into stranger′s eyes (He caught me by surprise) They looked right through me (He looked into my eyes) Never knew Never, ever thought that love could be (That′s when he came) He came and captured me
Like a scene out of a dream, I can′t believe it Kind of strange and familiar But in his eyes I get a sign, I get a feeling I get the feeling he knows me Maybe I could stay awhile, maybe I could make you smile I don′t have much to do Maybe we could walk awhile Maybe, maybe we could talk awhile
Can′t help looking into stranger′s eyes I was looking into stranger′s eyes (He caught me by surprise) They looked right through me (He looked into my eyes) Never knew Never, ever thought that love could be (That′s when he came) He came and captured me
How was I to know this would happen Though I didn′t know I would meet this stranger It′s the kind of thing that dreams are made of And I keep thinking about stranger′s eyes
I was looking into stranger′s eyes (He caught me by surprise) They looked right through me (He looked into my eyes) Never knew Never, ever thought that love could be (That′s when he came) He came and captured me
Born in a world we don’t wanted Born under real bad signs Born in the name of destruction With a dysfunctional life Live in a world full of hate Live for the truth to remain We’re all in it, let’s make it better We can make a change forever
We’re born to die but we’re together Fight this fight
Strangers yesterday But now we know we’re on our way Strangers yesterday – no more We’re brothers to the core Stand up, fight forever more Strangers yesterday – no more for sure ‘Cause together we belong
Into the future we’ll go So many secrets to know So many times we would battle So many fights we could settle So many days without gain Too many days in pain We will be good for each other Belong just one to another
We will be strong and we’ll go on To live each day
Strangers yesterday But now we know we’re on our way Strangers yesterday – no more We’re brothers to the core Stand up, fight forever more Strangers yesterday – no more for sure ‘Cause together we belong Yeah, we belong
We will be strong and we’ll go on To fight each day and we’ll care
Strangers yesterday But now we know we’re on our way Strangers yesterday – no more We’re brothers to the core Stand up, fight forever more Strangers yesterday – no more Strangers yesterday But now we know we’re on our way Strangers yesterday – no more We’re brothers to the core Stand up, fight forever more Strangers yesterday – no more Strangers yesterday But now we know we’re on our way Strangers yesterday – no more We’re brothers to the core Stand up, fight forever more Strangers yesterday – no more for sure ‘Cause together we belong

Leavin′ Leavin′ me out in the cold Believe what you want, just to leavin′ I can′t believe what you′ve done Believe what you want, just to
You close the book, you shout it down Can′t find a way, to work it round, And all that′s left, this empty space, I find the words, a fall from grace
But all this time You stay at your shoes and held your tongue So what were wrong A stranger to my eyes (х2)

You close the doors When you’re w/ me, slowly Lay down next to me Just the alight of our fate
This was not part of the plan I was just on my way You make me comfortable
This is love with a stranger Just the touch is enough I let go with a stranger Just to see you, just to feel
No questions, please don’t ask Please don’t worry ‘bout the past This is love with a stranger When I walk out the door You won’t see me no more This is love with a stranger

I don′t understand You look just like the man In the picture by our bed The suspence is pounding and clouding up my head I′m checkin′ your clothes And you wear the same size shoe You sleep in his spot And you′re driving his car But I don′t know just who you are
There′s a stranger in my house It took a while to figure out There′s no way you could be who you say you are You gotta be someone else Cuz he wouldn′t touch me like that And he wouldn′t treat me like you do He would adore me, he wouldn′t ignore me So I′m convinced there′s a stranger in my house
I′m not sure who you are Don′t see your shadow around when you walk Ain′t leavin′ no kisses Goodbye with no words If these walls could talk They would have nothing to tell
So what could it be? Is there someone immitating me? Could she be taking my place? Look me in the face And tell me that I′m wrong When I say...
There′s a stranger in my house It took a while to figure out There′s no way you could be who you say you are You gotta be someone else Cuz he wouldn′t touch me like that And he wouldn′t treat me like you do He would adore me, he wouldn′t ignore me So I′m convinced there′s a stranger in my house
Pop quiz Tell me where we first kissed Tell me where my spot is Tell me if I liked it, loved it Or could it be That the stranger is me Have I changed so drastically? Is it I want more for me? And you remain the same
There′s a stranger in my house It took a while to figure out There′s no way you could be who you say you are You gotta be someone else Cuz he wouldn′t touch me like that And he wouldn′t treat me like you do He would adore me, he wouldn′t ignore me So I′m convinced there′s a stranger in my house
