Electric Light Orchestra - Stranger
On a cold and windy morning
Said goodbye to my old friends
They were hangin' around the corner
They were stayin' till the end
On the other side of midnight,
I was lookin' for a place to stay
And one thing's sure for certain
I ain't never goin' back again
The streetlights looked so pretty
As they spread into a town
I was lookin' for another sundown
And my head was spinning round and round Lookin' through the eyes of a stranger
Lookin' through the eyes of danger
Lookin' at the all-night dancer
Never takin' all the chances
As I walked into the main street
Saw a crowd across the square
And I heard a guitar playin'
And I saw you standing there
Lookin' through the eyes of a stranger
Lookin' through the eyes of danger
Lookin' at the all-night dancer
Never takin' all the chances
Distant bells they started ringing
Somewhere far off in the night
And the place was full of loneliness
That disappeared from sight
Said goodbye to my old friends
They were hangin' around the corner
They were stayin' till the end
On the other side of midnight,
I was lookin' for a place to stay
And one thing's sure for certain
I ain't never goin' back again
The streetlights looked so pretty
As they spread into a town
I was lookin' for another sundown
And my head was spinning round and round Lookin' through the eyes of a stranger
Lookin' through the eyes of danger
Lookin' at the all-night dancer
Never takin' all the chances
As I walked into the main street
Saw a crowd across the square
And I heard a guitar playin'
And I saw you standing there
Lookin' through the eyes of a stranger
Lookin' through the eyes of danger
Lookin' at the all-night dancer
Never takin' all the chances
Distant bells they started ringing
Somewhere far off in the night
And the place was full of loneliness
That disappeared from sight
