Stranger In The Crowd by Elvis Presley Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 1970

[Verse 1]
I've been standing on a corner
Since a quarter after seven
I was down to my last cigarette
And the clock in the window
At a quarter to eleven

[Verse 2]
I was watching all the people
Passing by me going places
Just the loneliest guy in the town
Looking for a friendly smile
But all I see were faces

[Verse 3]
And then, just like the taste of milk and honey
I found the stranger I've been looking for
Like a wave, my cup of love was overflowing
I knew the stranger in the crowd
And I would be stranger no more
[Verse 4]
Love had found us on that corner
At a quarter to eleven
I thought you were too good to be true
All my life I had believed
That angels only live in heaven
But now, we share the taste of milk and honey
Each day is sweeter than the day before

[Verse 5]
My cup ran overflowing
Because the stranger in the crowd
And I would be stranger no more

[Verse 6]
Deep inside, my cup of love was overflowing
I found the stranger I've been looking for
Like a wave, my cup of love was overflowing
I knew the stranger in the crowd
And I would be stranger no more
