Lyrics Paul Kelly – Blue Stranger

Hello, blue stranger
Sitting there all alone
With your glass of sorrow you seem so far from home
Maybe you will let me buy a round or two

Hello, blue stranger
I haven’t seen you around
I know every reason for leaving town
We might know each other before this night is through
I’m a blue stranger too

And strangers fall in love every day
All lovers were strangers once, just like us
A little unsure of their way

Hello, blue stranger
Will you take a chance?
I might be mistaken but I see meaning in your glance
Maybe this could be the start of something new
I’m a blue stranger too

And strangers fall in love all the time
All lovers were strangers once, just like us
A little confused-sharing eyes

Yeah, strangers fall in love every night
All lovers were strangers once, just like us
Trying to get the words right

Hello, blue stranger
Hello, blue stranger
This one’s on me
