I'm A Stranger

(John Mayall)

You're a pretty girl, I'm a stranger

But I've got feelings for you to hear

I've been travelling around for days

But sweet angels don't often appear

I saw you in the crowd

But I was not allowed to have you near

I was listening to your vioce

I heard your name was Caroline

But you had another man by your side

And I wished that you were mine

Precious hours went by

Before I had to try and leave you behind

Hills and rivers seperate us

And my words were all in vain

You were only my magic dream

Lightning flash in the falling rain

But wherever I may be

I wish that you could be with me again
