Take my hand
You're a stranger in paradise
I'm lost in a wonderland
With a stranger in paradise
If I stand starry eyed
That's the 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 me stranger in paradise
And tell me that I need be
A stranger no more
Ahh
I saw your face
And I ascended
Out of the common place
And into the rare
Somewhere out in space
I hang suspended
Until I know for sure
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 me stranger in paradise
And tell me that I need be
A stranger no more
No more
