Stranger

Oh you only know me as the stranger at your door

I come and go from time to time and there is nothing more

But if you were to venture on further down the line

Why won't you greet the stranger in your mind?

I've worn out my welcome, now I think it's time to go

Walkin' it ain't easy when you bear a heavy load

Faces can tell no lies I know just how to breathe

Look deep inside the stolen dream and maybe you will see

Oh when the shadows start to fall I rest my weary bones

Under the stars of fallen skies and shelter I go home

I close my eyes and drift away, waitin' for the day

Somebody finds my troubled mind and takes the pain away

You only know me as the stranger at your door

I come and go from time to time and there is nothing more

But if you were to venture on further down the line

Why won't you greet the stranger in the back of your mind?
