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 the 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 stranger in paradise And tell him that he need be A stranger no more And tell him that he need be A stranger no more
