GUEST,Stranger Here Myself Lyr Req: Saints and Strangers (Chris Stuart) (5) Lyr Req: Saints and Strangers (Chris Stuart) 23 May 05


Hi all,

As the thread title says, I'm trying to find the lyrics to Saints and Strangers, which was the title cut of a 2003 CD which I don't own. Heard the song on the radio and cannot get it out of my head.

From what I've read, the title is from a 1940s book, also titled Saints and Strangers, that describes the voyage of the Pilgrims to America. There were, I gather, two very distinct groups on board, a group of religious folk, who called themselves Saints, and non-believers or different-believers, who the Saints referred to as Strangers. They supposedly didn't want much to do with each other, but once on these shores they had to band together or die.

(I may have all of this a bit wrong, though.)

At any rate, right or wrong telling, the song made a deep impression on me.

Lyrics appreciated,

With kind regards,
Stranger
