Beautiful Strangers Songtext
If you ever hear that thunder
Put your eye to the sky, boy, and wonder
Maybe there's a kingdom above the weather
Oh, and whether you're gonna get on in
Is up to you
If you ever hear that crying
In the distance like some siren
Maybe there's a singer with no ring
Around their little finger, oh love
Put your eye to the sky, boy, and wonder
Maybe there's a kingdom above the weather
Oh, and whether you're gonna get on in
Is up to you
If you ever hear that crying
In the distance like some siren
Maybe there's a singer with no ring
Around their little finger, oh love
And If I lose my voice
If I have no choice but to go quiet
Won't you sing for me
A melody into the night there
And if I die too young
And if the wolf he comes
Fee-fi-fo-fum
If I die too young
Oh, if the locust come
Well then run, run, run
Free
If you ever hear that gunshot
You may think 'bout what you do but you don't got
Say a prayer
Think of mother
I am a rock
If you ever hear that sound now If the door gets kicked in here, they come now
Think of others
Be their cover
I am what they're not
Pray for Paris
They cannot scare us
Or stop the music
You got a sweet voice, child
Why don't you use it?
If I die too young
If the gunmen come
I'm full of love
So release me
Every piece of me
Up above
Up above
Love my mama and my papa
Love my sister
Can't stand the coppers
Up in their choppers
Oh, flying overhead
Forty-nine dead
Singing, oh, my Lord, carry me home
Oh, my Lord, carry me home
Oh, my Lord, come carry me home
And if I die too young
For something I ain't done
Carry my name
Every day
Oh, I'm sorry
Oh, I'm sorry
Freddie Gray
But sleep easy
Like baby Jesus
In a manger
Oh, sleep easy
Like little Jesus
Beautiful stranger
If I die too young
Let all that I've done
Be remembered
And I'll sleep easy
Like baby Jesus
In his manger
I'll sleep easy
Like little Jesus
Safe from danger
Carry onward
Like some songbird
Beautiful stranger
Carry onward
Like some songbird
Beautiful stranger
Oh, my Lord, beautiful stranger
Oh, my Lord, beautiful stranger
If I have no choice but to go quiet
Won't you sing for me
A melody into the night there
And if I die too young
And if the wolf he comes
Fee-fi-fo-fum
If I die too young
Oh, if the locust come
Well then run, run, run
Free
If you ever hear that gunshot
You may think 'bout what you do but you don't got
Say a prayer
Think of mother
I am a rock
If you ever hear that sound now If the door gets kicked in here, they come now
Think of others
Be their cover
I am what they're not
Pray for Paris

Or stop the music
You got a sweet voice, child
Why don't you use it?
If I die too young

Up above
Love my mama and my papa

Oh, my Lord, carry me home
Oh, my Lord, come carry me home

Oh, I'm sorry
