Lyrics Tony Bennett – Stranger In Paradise

Text:

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
Mortals who stand beside
An angels like us

I saw her face
And I ascended
Out of the common place
Into the rarest
Somewhere in space
I hang suspended
Until I know
There’s a chance that she cares

Won’t you answer this 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 this strangers in paradise
And tell us that we need be
Strangers no more

I saw her face
And I ascended
Out of the common place
Into the rarest
Somewhere in space
I hang suspended

Until I know
There’s a chance that she cares

Won’t you answer this 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 this strangers in paradise
And tell us that we need be
Strangers no more
