This Stranger - Tanita Tikaram

I’m gonna build a strange

City overcome

Mad as any

And anyone

Who wants to wish upon me

I will take a city

And it will take the rain

Anybody who sees this face

Will have to blink at this

Strange heart

This stranger

Everbody’s angel and

Everbody’s friend

Everybody who came around

Will come around again

I will stake this city

And it will take the soil

And anybody who sings me

Will know the trouble’s been a

Strange heart

This stranger

Where’s yours sincerely?

Where you say you’ll be

I sit wrapped in this restless night

Yes — it still comes back to me

Everybody’s favoured

And everybody’s day

'Cos everytime I see your face

I can see your

Strange heart

This stranger
