"Whoever you are..."
Lyrics
Got no time for an encore
No time to make amends
Nothing left to say or do
Better leave before the end
You're a long way from home
You come to depend
On the kindness of strangers
Turn the picture to the wall
Take the light out of your eye
Move your face to the shadows
So no-one sees you cry
You're out on your own
You come to rely
On the kindness of strangers
Do the things you never wanted
Say the things you never mean
Play a part you never learned
In someone else's scene
You're riding from a fall
That's when you come to lean
On the kindness of strangers
Got no time for an encore
No time to make amends
Nothing left to say or do
Better leave before the end
You're a long way from home
You come to depend
On the kindness of strangers
