I'm just a stranger at this fancy party
Floating, laughing happily
Can't remember when this all started
Feeling like a fool ... silly
When you touched me I couldn't see your hand
Suffering from blindness
The blindness I can't stand anymore
The blindness of another ordinary day ... the blindness
But your words made me feel ... restless
You called me a shining lady
With your voice so soft and slow
But listening was kind of shady
Like something that got lost a long time ago
You called me a shining lady
And your voice was blue and grey
And I felt completely ready
To run away
You called me a shining lady
And your voice was grey and blue
And I felt completely ready
To run away ... run away with you
We all are strangers at our fancy parties
Perhaps sometimes having fun
But in the mornings won't find us happy
When counting our nights one by one
A ballroom full of couples dancing waltz
One step ahead and two steps back
The people touching hands, but not hearts
The people playing just the chosen cards ... the blindness
Meeting you here was really good luck
