[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
[04:02.04]He was just some joseph looking for a manger
[04:07.78]He was just some joseph looking for a manger.
[04:09.15]And leaning on your window sill
[04:10.85]Hell say one day you caused his will
[04:13.18]To weaken with your love and warmth and shelter
[04:17.86]And then taking from his wallet
[04:19.98]An old schedule of trains
[04:22.10]Hell say I told you when I came I was a stranger
[04:25.35]I told you when I came I was a stranger.
