Gentle stranger, you came into my life
When I was feelin' sad
And I looked up that day
To see your face shinin' in the sun
Your eyes were kind and you spoke softly to me
You were just passing through
Tomorrow you would be gone
But we shared conversation and wine and talked of many things
And on that night I slept softly in your arms
And you'd kept me warm
You kept me from harm, you gave me love
Yes, I knew you'd be leavin' in the mornin'
By the dawn you'd be goin' on your way
But we can never know about tomorrow
And I know you made me beautiful, beautiful today
Gentle stranger, I'm now returned again
To lonely days and nights
But now I cannot feel the pain so much
For a memory of you
Comes and wraps itself around me in the dark
And in my dream I sleep softly in your arms
And I am warm, I am safe from harm, I am loved
I am loved, I am loved
I am loved, I am loved
I am loved, I am loved
