[Verse 1] Those words are all remainders Echoes growing in the heart of twilight They lay back laughing at naivety's star Awaken all those whispers The dusty shadow of a passing favour I wouldn't say that you were ruthless or right I couldn't see from so far [Refrain] Was I chasing after rainbows? One thing for sure, you never answered when I called And I wiped away the water from my face To look through the eyes of a stranger [Chorus] For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd Trading in my shelter for danger I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down In the eyes of a stranger [Verse 2] Can't tell the real from reflection When all these faces look the same to me In every city such a desolate dream Some days are strange to number Some say the seventh sounds a little bit stranger A year of Sundays seems to have drifted right by (I could have sworn) in one evening [Refrain] And I'm not seized in desperation No steel reproaches on the table from before But I still can feel those splinters of ice I look through the eyes of a stranger [Chorus] For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd Trading in my shelter for danger I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down In the eyes of a stranger [Guitar solo] [Refrain] I must be chasing after rainbows One thing for sure, you never answer when I call And I wipe away the water from my face To look through the eyes of a stranger [Chorus] For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd Trading in my shelter for danger I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down Walking away like a stranger From rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd Trading in my shelter for danger I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down In the eyes of a stranger [Outro] Ohhh In the eyes of a stranger In the eyes of a stranger
