Saint Etienne - 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 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. &


Oh, won't you answer this loving prayer &
of a stranger in paradise? &
Don't send me in dark despair & for all that I hunger for. &
But open your angel arms & to the stranger in paradise, & and tell him that he need be & a stranger no more. &


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. &


Touch me, & I'm a stranger in paradise. &
la, la, la, la, la, la, la, &
la, la, la, la, la. &
Touch me, & I'm a stranger in paradise. &
la, la, la, la, la, la, la, &
la, la, la, la, la. &
Touch me, & I'm sick.
