Electric Light Orchestra (elo)-stranger Lyrics

On a cold and windy morning, said goodbye to my old friends



They were hangin' around the corner,



They were stayin' till the end







On the other side of midnight,



I was lookin' for a place to stay



And one thing's sure for certain,



I ain't never goin' back again







The streetlights looked so pretty as they spread into a town



I was lookin' for another sundown



And my head was spinning round and round







Chorus: Lookin' through the eyes of a stranger



Lookin' through the eyes of danger



Lookin' at the all-night dancer



Never takin' all the chances







As I walked into the main street, saw a crowd across the square



And I heard a guitar playin' and I saw you standing there







Chorus







Distant bells they started ringing, somewhere far off in the night



And the place was full of loneliness that disappeared from sight
