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
