concert cast of kurt weill in america - i'm a stranger here myself lyrics

[verse 1]
tell me, is love still a popular suggestion
or merely an obsolete art?
forgive me for asking this simple question
i’m unfamiliar with her heart
i’m a stranger here myself

[verse 2]
why is it wrong to murmur i adore her
when it’s shamefully obvious i do?
does love embarrass her or does it bore her?
i’m only waiting for my cue
i’m a stranger here myself

[bridge]
i dream of a day, of a gay warm day
with my fate between her hands
have i missed the path? have i gone astray?
i ask, and no one understands

[verse 3]
i can’t believe that love has lost its glamour
that passion is really passé
if gender is just a term in grammar
how can i ever find my way
since i’m a stranger here myself?
[interlude]
please tell me, tell a stranger
by curiosity goaded
is there really any danger
that love is now outmoded?
i’m interested especially
in knowing why you waste it
true romance is so fleshly
with what have you replaced it?
what is your latest foible?
is gin rummy more exquisite?
is skiing more enjoyable?
for heaven’s sakes, what is it?

[verse 4]
you see here before you a woman with a mission
you must discover the key to my ignition
and then if you should make a diplomatic proposition
how could i possibly refuse
when i’m a stranger here myself?

[outro]
and i’ve always depended on the kindness of strangers
