| [00:03.05] | Songs Title：the stranger song |
| [00:04.36] | Its true that all the men you knew were dealers |
| [00:07.74] | Who said they were through with dealing |
| [00:11.04] | Every time you gave them shelter |
| [00:14.29] | I know that kind of man |
| [00:16.97] | Its hard to hold the hand of anyone |
| [00:19.97] | Who is reaching for the sky just to surrender. |
| [00:23.91] | And then sweeping up the jokers that he left behind |
| [00:33.65] | You find he did not leave you very much |
| [00:36.77] | Not even laughter |
| [00:39.33] | Like any dealer he was watching for the card |
| [00:43.58] | That is so high and wild |
| [00:45.63] | Hell never need to deal another |
| [00:48.37] | He was just some joseph looking for a manger |
| [00:51.83] | He was just some joseph looking for a manger. |
| [00:58.81] | And then leaning on your window sill |
| [01:01.44] | Hell say one day you caused his will |
| [01:04.12] | To weaken with your love and warmth and shelter |
| [01:08.49] | And then taking from his wallet |
| [01:10.79] | An old schedule of trains, hell say |
| [01:13.35] | I told you when I came I was a stranger |
| [01:17.47] | I told you when I came I was a stranger. |
| [01:23.66] | But now another stranger seems to want you to ignore his dreams |
| [01:28.72] | As though they were the burden of some other |
| [01:32.78] | O youve seen that man before |
| [01:34.41] | His golden arm dispatching cards |
| [01:37.22] | But now its rusted from the elbow to the finger |
| [01:41.84] | And he wants to trade the game he plays for shelter |
| [01:46.21] | Yes he wants to trade the game he knows for shelter. |
| [01:51.92] | You hate to watch another tired man |
| [01:55.41] | Lay down his hand |
| [01:56.66] | Like he was giving up the holy game of poker |
| [02:01.78] | And while he talks his dreams to sleep |
| [02:04.40] | You notice theres a highway |
| [02:06.27] | That is curling up like smoke above his shoulder |
| [02:10.58] | Its curling up like smoke above his shoulder. |
| [02:17.87] | You tell him to come in sit down |
| [02:21.39] | But something makes you turn around |
| [02:25.57] | The door is open you cant close you shelter |
| [02:30.31] | You try the handle of the road |
| [02:33.56] | It opens do not be afraid |
| [02:37.23] | Its you my love, you who are the stranger |
| [02:42.91] | It is you my love, you who are the stranger. |
| [02:47.46] | Well, Ive been waiting, I was sure |
| [02:49.34] | Wed meet between the trains were waiting for |
| [02:51.96] | I think its time to board another |
| [02:54.84] | Please understand, I never had a secret chart |
| [02:58.47] | To get me to the heart of this |
| [03:01.23] | Or any other matter |
| [03:03.85] | Well he talks like this |
| [03:05.72] | You dont know what hes after |
| [03:08.34] | When he speaks like this, |
| [03:09.78] | You dont know what hes after. |
| [03:14.27] | Lets meet tomorrow if you chose |
| [03:16.90] | Upon the shore, beneath the bridge |
| [03:19.48] | That they are building on some endless river |
| [03:23.85] | Then he leaves the platform |
| [03:25.47] | For the sleeping car thats warm |
| [03:27.28] | You realize, hes only advertising one more shelter |
| [03:32.95] | And it comes to you, he never was a stranger |
| [03:37.46] | And you say ok the bridge or someplace later. |
| [03:41.57] | And then sweeping up the jokers |
| [03:45.75] | That he left behind |
| [03:47.25] | You find he did not leave you very much |
| [03:50.37] | Not even laughter |
| [03:53.12] | Like any dealer he was watching for the card |
| [03:56.86] | That is so high and wild |
| [03:58.86] | Hell never need to deal another |
