The Seventh Stranger

Those words are all remainders

Echos growing in the heart of twilight

They lay back laughing at naivety's star.

Awaken all those whispers,

The dusty shadow of a passing favour

I wouldn't say that you were ruthless or right

I couldn't see from so far.

Was i chasing after rainbows?

One thing for sure - you never answered when i called.

And i wiped away the water from my face

To look through the eyes of a stranger...



For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd

Trading in my shelter for danger

I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down -

In the eyes of the stranger!



Can't tell the real from reflections

When all these faces look the same to me

In every city such a desolate dream.

Some days are strange to number

Some say the seventh sounds a little bit stranger

A year of sundays seems to have drifted right by -

I could have sworn in one evening.

And i'm not seized in desperation,

No steel reproaches on the table from before.

But i still can feel those splinters of ice

I look through the eyes of a stranger...



(chorus)



-



I must be chasing after rainbows

One thing for sure you never answer when i call.

And i wipe away the water from my face

To look through the eyes of a stranger...



For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd

Trading in my shelter for danger

I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down

Walking away like a stranger



(chorus)



In the eyes of the stranger..



In the eyes of the stranger..



In the eyes of the stranger..
