He's a stranger   I don't know where he's coming from   Is he a danger to me?   Or just another man?   He knows magic   Or maybe he's a charlatan   Is it a sly trick he plays?   Does he have a plan?      He said he came from a world beyond my dreams   From the depths of my mind   He said he'd burn like a star and disappear   But leave his spirit behind      He's a stranger   A man with a destiny   A re-arranger of fate   A changer of lives   They will erase him   For they are all afraid of him   They're gonna trace him, and then   Cause him to die      He said he'd cure me; I do not have to die   I hold my fate in my hands   He said he'd always be there, every time I'd cry   One day I would understand      He was a stranger   They shot him and now he's dead   I'm out of danger, he lives on   Inside my head      He said he came from a world beyond my dreams   From the depths of my mind (From the depths of mind!)   He said he'd burn like a star and disappear.   But leave his spirit behind      He said he'd cure me; I do not have to die   I hold my fate in my hands (I hold my fate in my hands!)   He said he'd always be there, every time I'd cry   One day I would understand
