Stranger here
|
Face down in the river floating by
|
A backwards sky
|
Stranger here
|
Hung by the neck
|
Jeered by the crowd
|
Stranger here
|
Stranger here
|
|
And I could tell you about the time
|
I was looking for a rhyme
|
communing with the planets above
|
I am the righteous man
|
The one you're looking for
|
I am a stranger here. I am a stranger here
|
|
Stranger here
|
The legend will be told about the boy
|
Never hungry, never cold
|
Stranger here
|
Smoke in my eyes
|
Strange taste on my tongue
|
I am a stranger here
|
I am a stranger here
|
|
And I could tell you about the evening
|
That I was out drinking
|
And fell asleep by the side of the well
|
I am the righteous man
|
The one you're looking for
|
I am a stranger here
|
I am a stranger here
|
|
And I could tell you about the time
|
I was swinging from the twine
|
And saw you flirting with that Jack-in-the-crowd
|
I am the righteous man
|
The one you're looking for
|
I am a stranger here
|
I am a stranger here
|
|
Stranger here
|
Head on the pillow floating by
|
Willows sigh
|
