Stranger

Stranger
Caught in her reflection
I sense within those eyes
Danger
And I wonder should I approach her
Knowing she's taken by surprise.

Minutes to go
Before my departure
Boarding Now
The message clearly displayed
There's a move to be made.

Stranger
Sips her last cappuccino
Stubs her cigarette out
Stranger
There is something in her demeanour
Want to find out what she's all about.

My head is turning
My stomach's churning
Persistent yearning
Let our past and futures collide
I've nowhere to hide
There's nowhere to hide.

If I were to talk to you
What would I say to you
Would I just be a pain to you
You're a stranger to me
And strangers cannot pretend
What would you say to me
Would you put paid to me
Yould you make me ashamed to be
Such a stranger to you
'Cause strangers cannot pretend.

Stranger
I haven't a moment to squander
She's making tracks for the door
Stranger
I can prevaricate no longer
It's the time to advance or withdraw.

Moments to go
Before my departure
The gate is closing
A lady's announcing my name
She's calling in vain
She's calling in vain.

If I were to talk to you
What would I say to you
Would I just be a pain to you
You're a stranger to me
And strangers cannot pretend
What would you say to me
Would you put paid to me
Yould you make me ashamed to be
Such a stranger to you
'Cause strangers cannot pretend.
