Little Stranger lyrics

There's a love he cannot hide Though he waits in the line to fight So he looks up to welcome you, his child Little stranger girl, you are home tonight He reaches out a thousand miles An sends his voice to where you lie And in your dreams he carries you, his child Little stranger girl, you are home tonight When you have grown, you may ask why And you will read these words he writes And they will say, I thank you, my child, Little stranger girl, you are home tonight
