allan taylor - the stranger lyrics
a stranger came in from the night
and he stood as if lost in a dream.
his smile was as sad as a true love denied
and his voice was a song in the wind.
i have travelled for many-a-mile
and my journey i cannot delay,
but i must rest for a while
for i’m weary and cold
and tomorrow i’ll be on my way.
give me fire to keep out the cold.
close the shirters and make f-rs- the door.
give me food for the night and a candle for light
and i will make up my bed on the floor.
i have nothing to give for my keep
and your favours i cannot repay,
but a gift is not measured in silver and gold …
it’s a memory that’s treasured each day.
the stranger arose with the dawn
and he shouldered his travelling load.
without making a sound he took one look around
and the stranger – he took to the road.
when the cold wind hounds in the night
and the rain beats hard on the door,
a voice in the wind seems to echo again
and the stranger is travelling once more,
