The Stranger |
LyricsWill-o'-the-wisphe comes burnin' through the trees Dark as the night, hear the raven cry on the breeze Today- he's gonna steal your life away, today- he's gonna steal your dreams away, today- he's gonna steal your tomorrow away To-day-ay To-day-ay Today... instrumental (repeat all) |
| Short Song Description: this song has a celtic feel and is about, primarily, addictions of all sorts and the hold they have on a person |
| Long Song Description: while about addiciton the song can also on a more basic level be about a real ominous force or presence and its approach |
| Story Behind the Song: written while I was struggling with, or enjoying my own addiction and messing with the chords from Wishing You Were Here. |
