Lonely stranger, you ve been running for ages
But from what, no one can be sure
You ve gotta stop turnin pages
Find a place to be pure
Lonely stranger, go forth and discover
Feelings buried in the black hole
And then you will recover
The lost part of your soul
Don t choose the prom queen, though she ll cure the fear
She will hurt you without tryin
The best bet is the road without tears
You ve seen enough cryin
You are gettin no younger
Time to stop this charade
Your pain and your hunger
Drive you out of the shade
Lonely stranger, fight off all the sadness
Don t let happiness turn to pain
Forget all the madness
And come in from the rain
Lonely stranger, it s all caught up with you now
You cannot run any longer
It s over somehow
