Stranger In Moscow

I was wandering in the rain
Mask of life, feelin’ insane
Swift and sudden fall from grace
Sunny days seem far away
Kremlin’s shadow belittlin’ me
Stalin’s tomb won’t let me be
On and on and on it came
Wish the rain would just let me be
How does it feel
(How does it feel)
How does it feel
How does it feel
When you’re alone
And you’re cold inside
Here abandoned in my fame
Armageddon of the brain
KGB was doggin’ me
Take my name and just let me be
Then a begger boy called my name
Happy days will drown the pain
On and on and on it came
In the rain, and again, and again
Take my name and just let me be
How does it feel
(How does it feel)
How does it feel
How does it feel
(How does it feel)
How does it feel
(How does it feel now)
How does it feel
How does it feel
When you’re alone
And you’re cold inside
How does it feel
(How does it feel)
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel
(How does it feel now)
How does it feel
How does it feel
When you’re alone
And you’re cold inside
Like a stranger in Moscow
(Lord I must say)
Like a stranger in Moscow
(Lord I must say)
We’re talkin’ danger
We’re talkin’ danger baby
Like a stranger in Moscow
We’re talkin’ danger
We’re talkin’ danger baby
Like a stranger in Moscow
I’m livin’ lonely
I’m livin’ lonely, baby
A stranger in Moscow
