No Stranger (chapter Viii) — текст песни (Saga)

(lyrics by Jim Crichton)
I`ve tried hard to tell you
You better, you better, you better be careful
Right down the line
And I am no stranger
It wasn`t long ago, so very long ago
I was one of your kind
You`d better stop the running `round and listen
`Cause when the lights come up
I`ll have my eye on you
Once you mistook me
For the menace, the menace
Oh, if you`d only known
And that last confrontation
Was just a warning, so that you`d know
What would happen
If you push me too far
You`d better stop the running `round and listen
Cause when the lights come up
I`ll have my eye on you
I see a cloudless sky before me
I`m searching for the ones, I`m searching for the ones
Who`d like to leave this all far behind them
And when I find you all we`ll fade away
Maybe I`ll be back, maybe I`ll be back
In some other way
You`d better stop the running `round and listen
Stop the running `round and listen
`Cause when the lights come up
I`ll have my eye on you
I`ve got my eyes on you
Now we`re standing on the sidelines
Just watching how you play
With the toys that seems to outgrow you
I suppose we`ll have to miss
What you`ll decide to do
In a blink of an eye
It comes back to you
