Too many nights on the town
Too many times when the lines were down
She's a long way from home
It's a long way to run

She spends her days at the Ritz
Waiting in silence before the night hits
She's a long way from home
It's a long way to run

A stranger in paradise - she's just like a fool in love
An angel in her demise - it's a thin disguise
Just doesn't hide all the pain
She'll stand by her alibi - she's just like a fool in love
Defend it with jealous eyes - but she never lies
She just denies it

Oh doesn't she know she can never win
The state she's in - she's lucky she still knows how to cry
Love is alive - if she'd only see
There's enough for her - there's enough for me

You say "How much for the 'cain' ", she says
" I don't deal, I just play the game"
I'm a long way from home - it's a long way to run

Oh, Oh, Oh she's just like a fool in love

I saw her yesterday - she looked
Tired and alone as she walked away - I said
You're a long way from home
It's along way to run

A stranger in paradise - she's just like a fool in love
An angel in her demise - it's a thin disguise
Just doesn't hide all the pain
She'll stand by her alibi - she's just like a fool in love
Defend it with jealous eyes - but she never lies
She just denies it

A stranger in paradise - she's just like a fool in love
An angel in her demise - it's a thin disguise
Just doesn't hide all the pain
