You're The Stranger Lyrics - Asia

[Chorus] 

Don't hang that sign on me 

You're the stranger 

Don't try to talk to me 

You're the stranger 

On the seas 

They came from far away 

From the skies 

Their silver birds of prey 

In one day 

Ten thousand years could change 

We are fools 

To live your pilgrim ways 

[Chorus] 

And we drive 

Five hundred miles this time 

To the edge 

Of crystal-cut blue sky 

Silence breathes 

South of the border line 

Silent trees 

Look back and wonder why 

Did father and his holy son 

Spread the word and point the gun? 

And where the eagle used to fly 

They carve their concrete in the sky 

Tearing at our mother's skin 

Taking all her blood within 

Remember how it used to be? 

Did father and his holy son 

Spread the word and point the gun 

And where the eagle used to fly 

They carve their concrete in the sky 

Tearing at our mother's skin 

Taking all her blood within 

Remember how it used to be? 

Stand up again and say: 

[Chorus:Repeat x2]
