Saga - No Stranger (chapter Viii) lyrics

rate me

(lyrics by Jim Crichton)

I've tried hard to tell you

You better, you better, you better be careful

Right down the line

And I am no stranger

It wasn't long ago, so very long ago

I was one of your kind

You'd better stop the running 'round and listen

'Cause when the lights come up

I'll have my eye on you

Once you mistook me

For the menace, the menace

Oh, if you'd only known

And that last confrontation

Was just a warning, so that you'd know

What would happen

If you push me too far

You'd better stop the running 'round and listen

"Cause when the lights come up

I'll have my eye on you

I see a cloudless sky before me

I'm searching for the ones, I'm searching for the ones

Who'd like to leave this all far behind them

And when I find you all we'll fade away

Maybe I'll be back, maybe I'll be back

In some other way

You'd better stop the running 'round and listen

Stop the running 'round and listen

'Cause when the lights come up

I'll have my eye on you

I've got my eyes on you

Now we're standing on the sidelines

Just watching how you play

With the toys that seems to outgrow you

I suppose we'll have to miss

What you'll decide to do

In a blink of an eye

It comes back to you
