The Seventh Stranger

Those words are all remainders,
C
E
echoes growing in the heart of twilight
Gm7
Dm

They lay back laughing at naivety star
C
Em
Awaken all those whispers,
C

the dusty shadow of a passing favour

I couldn’t see from so far
F

Was I chasing after rainbows?
E
One thing for sure you never answered
Am
when I called
F

And I wiped away the water from my face,

to look through the eyes of a stranger

For rumours in the wake

of such a lonely crowd,
D
Am
trading in my shelter for danger

I’m changing my name
G
just as the sun goes down,
Dsus
D

in the eyes of a stranger
C

Can’t tell the real from reflection
C
E
when all these faces look the same to me
Gm7
Dm

In ev’ry city such a desolate dream

Some days are strange to numbers,

No steel reproaches on the table from before
F

But I still can feel those splinters of ice,
E
Am
I look through the eyes of a stranger
