Strange Town

Like a child
You always landed on your feet
Running wild
Paid caution, little mind
Playing in the middle of the streets
With all the time in the world
A world so wide
You could wander it for miles
Going where you never been

But now
Deary, it's the middle of the night
and how
shadows grow under the street lights in a
Strange Town
with strangers all around
how can you be found if no one knows you in a Strange Town

If you could fly
could you find your own way home
up so high
over that old rainbow
But what about the great unknown
you might find where the sidewalk ends
Imagine your surprise
to the land where the wild things are
Little Lamb, so far away from home

But now
Deary, it's the middle of the night
and how
shadows grow under the street lights in a
Strange Town
with strangers all around
how can you be found if no one knows you in a Strange Town

But now
Deary, it's the middle of the night
and how
shadows grow under the street lights in a
Strange Town
with strangers all around
how can you be found if no one knows you in a Strange Town

Uh Oh (Now you've done it!)
Oh Oh (Here, kitty, kitty, kitty!)
Uh Oh
Uh Oh (Ooh, look at me!)
No!

But now
Deary, it's the middle of the night
and how
shadows grow under the street lights in a
Strange Town
with strangers all around
how can you be found if no one knows you in a Strange Town

(Parallel Bible passage Luke 15:16)
