Gord Downie
The Stranger
[Chorus]
I am the stranger
You can't see me
I am the stranger
Do you know what I mean?

[Verse 1]
I navigate the mud
I walk up by the path
Jumpin' to the right
And then I jump to the left

[Verse 2]
On a secret path
The one that nobody knows
And I'm movin' fast
On the path nobody knows

[Verse 3]
And what I'm feeling
Is anyone's guess
What is in my head?
And what's in my chest?

[Verse 4]
I'm not gonna stop
I'm just catchin' my breath
They're not gonna stop
Please just let me catch my breath
[Chorus]
I am the stranger
You can't see me
I am the stranger
Do you know what I mean?

[Verse 5]
That is not my dad
My dad is not a wild man
Doesn't even drink
My daddy's not a wild man

[Verse 6]
On a secret path
The one that nobody knows
And I'm movin' fast
On the path nobody knows

[Outro]
I am the stranger
I am the stranger
I am the stranger
