I felt all flushed with fever Embarrassed by the crowd, I felt he´d found my letters and read each one out loud I prayed that he would finish, but he just kept right on Chorus: He sang as if he knew me In all my dark despair And then he looked right through me As if I wasn´t there But he was there, this stranger, He´s singing clear and loud Chorus:
