Gentle stranger, you came into my life   When I was feelin' sad   And I looked up that day   To see your face shinin' in the sun      Your eyes were kind and you spoke softly to me   You were just passing through   Tomorrow you would be gone   But we shared conversation and wine and talked of many things      And on that night I slept softly in your arms   And you'd kept me warm   You kept me from harm, you gave me love      Yes, I knew you'd be leavin' in the mornin'   By the dawn you'd be goin' on your way   But we can never know about tomorrow   And I know you made me beautiful, beautiful today      Gentle stranger, I'm now returned again   To lonely days and nights   But now I cannot feel the pain so much      For a memory of you   Comes and wraps itself around me in the dark   And in my dream I sleep softly in your arms   And I am warm, I am safe from harm, I am loved      I am loved, I am loved   I am loved, I am loved   I am loved, I am loved
