THE FOUR ACES lyrics - A Stranger In Paradise

(Robert Wright and George Forrest)



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 commonplace into the rare

Somewhere in space I hang suspended

Until I know there's a chance that you care



Won't you answer the fervent prayer

Of a stranger in paradise

Don't send me in dark despair

From all that I hunger for



But open your angel's arms

To the stranger in paradise

And tell him that he need be

A stranger no more



Take my hand
