I could watch the clouds for hours and never need to know their names
Listen to the birds put our words and toils to shame
See two strangers passing on the street be forever changed
Just by one kind word or a winking eye
I've been living in my mind too long
Making small talk so my lonely heart don't show
Sinking into the slow moving dream of life
Won't you come and go with me
Seeking moonlight and mystery
We'll haunt the hidden places like the embers in the afterglow
In a world of strangers and stranger things
Could you be somebody I know?
I don't want to die, where the sleeping dogs lie
Where the silence is stronger than stone
If I have to wander through the lightning and the thunder
Must I always go alone?
I've been getting by on the bottom line
Can't get up or over but it ain't for lack of trying
Making trouble outta nothing, but no one wants to hear about that
Will these tired eyes let in the light?
Remind me of something I've known all along deep down inside
Some kind of truth behind all these lies we've been told
In a world of strangers and stranger things
Could you be somebody I know?
The bright lights will catch us and pass on by
And we'll watch them as they go
In a world of strangers and stranger things
Could you be somebody I know?
