Song
Duran Duran - "The Seventh Stranger"
(From the album "Seven and the Ragged Tiger")
Those words are all remainders, echoes growing in the heart of twilight
They lay back laughing at naivety 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
Was I chasing after rainbows?
One thing for sure you never answered when I
G -17-16\14\12\10-- (\ = slide)
called
And I wiped away the water from my face
to look through the eyes of a stranger
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
Can't tell the real from reflection
When all these faces look the same to me
In ev'ry city such a desolate dream
Some days are strange to numbers
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
And I'm not seized in desperation
No steel reproaches on the table from be-
G -17-16\14\12\10--
fore
But I still can feel those splinters of ice
I look through the eyes of a stranger
(Repeat chorus)
