Like a Stranger

Listen, to reason
It was you
Who went away
Living, together
Was never easy
In any case

I had to live
With you not there
Now you're coming back
My greatest fear

No, no, no, no, no
You're like a stranger
So many ways
You haven't changed

No, no, no, no, no
I feel in danger
When will you be
The same again?

You've been too long in the institution
You've been too long in the institution
You've been too long in the institution
You've been too long in the institution

I wrote letters oh my
I didn't get no reply
That got me thinking
You must be seeing some other guy

So high
I couldn't get over
Too wide, I couldn't
Get around
So low, I couldn't get under
So I just sit and wonder

No, no, no, no, no
You're like a stranger
So many ways
You haven't changed

No, no, no, no, no
I feel in danger
When will you be
The same again?

You've been too long in the institution
You've been too long in the institution
You've been too long in the institution
You've been too long in the institution

You've been too long in the institution
You've been too long in the institution
You've been too long in the institution
You've been too long in the institution

It's too high, it's too wide
I don't know
My left from my left side
Where did I go wrong?
Oh God, what have I done?
