Stefan Andersson Stranger's House song lyrics

Mercy, mercy me and you, forgive us for what we have done

We never tried to understand, we never wanted to

Maybe, maybe we could have helped, by letting him rest for a while

We were just watching his wheel spinning round and round

When we saw him chase the wind, laughing in the rain,

Trying to chase the devil on the run

He was just a fool, talking to the moon, (trying to catch the moon)

Trying to stop the sun from going down

He was just a fool, so were you and I

Yeah, mercy, mercy me and you, forgive us for what we didn't do

We left the boy alone in a world he didn't understand

TI tell you the boy was scared, a stranger in a stranger's house

We set the rules of a game he never wanted to play
