Saint Etienne - Stranger In Paradise lyrics

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.
