Ode an das Fremde

If ever your life is lonely

If ever your feeling low

There's one thing you must remember

A stranger's just a friend you do not know.

I'll pass along this way just one time only

A sweeping moment in eternity

Why should I spend my life alone and lonely

If just a word of friendship is the key

A warm smile can bring me true love

A warm heart can make it so

There's no need for being lonely

A stranger's just a friend you do not know.

No matter where you go of this you can be sure

A stranger's just a friend you do not know...
