Stefan Andersson - Stranger's House 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
