Stranger
Jefferson Airplane Jefferson Starship Starship Lyrics

Raindrops falling
The beginning of something new or cleansing that leads to a sense of sadness.

Winter feels so gloomy
The season of death and dormancy that can evoke feelings of loneliness and despair.

Hear a knock upon my door
A surprise visit or interruption that could lead to something completely unexpected.

Stranger calling
Someone unfamiliar wanting to enter into your life or a situation.

Eyes that look like mine
Seeing parts of yourself in the other, possibly a familiar but unknown connection.

He said you know I've called before
A sense of déjà vu or premonition of this stranger's appearance.

[Chorus] What is veiled now soon will be shown Come walk with me through the unknown
An invitation to explore the hidden or uncertain aspects of life and take a journey into the unknown.

Familiar stranger Should I know your name Did we meet some time ago
Questioning the stranger's identity and whether or not they are known from a past experience.

I feel uncertain Shadows whisper to me now Sudden wind begins to blow
A sense of unease or danger is present, possibly brought on by the stranger's arrival.

Darkened doorways Strangest things can happen Don't know who you're talking to
The unknown or unpredictable nature of situations, and the danger in interacting with people we don't know well.

Find yourself When lightning strikes you now You could be looking back at you
Life-changing moments that have the power to reveal our true selves and inspire growth.

[Chorus x2]
Reiteration of the invitation to step into the unknown and explore its mysteries.

Stranger!
An exclamation of fear or warning about the danger of strangers and unknown experiences.
