strange days

Strange days
The window pane with sun rays
The nights are Stranger still
As winds and rain fall and fill
A stranger walks up a foreign hill
And love is strangest of all

Love is a stranger
You must kiss or kill
Choose one or the other
Both will settle the bill
Do you let a stranger pay
For your meal
Do you let another feel
What you feel?

And what when you're the stranger
Will you know how love feels
To be walking in a land
With a friend to lend a meal
Will you be let in the door
Of somebody's home
Or be left out in the field
To grow more hungry alone
