(Robert Craig Wright/George Forrest)
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
