Lyrics
A modern-day Jonah in a Ninevah world
He hears his calling
And he's going out into the world
But he don't seem to care 'bout who he hurts or deceives
But he's looking for answers
And he's trying to find a release

Can you find it in the eyes of a complete stranger
Can you find it on the screen on the TV
Can you find it in the contents
Of the bottle you tip up tonight to the sky
Or is it a stranger in your own eyes
In your own eyes tonight

A modern-day trouble that don't seem to disappear
A life now lived in exile, and a life now lifed in fear
While striving on towards the mark he got lost along the way
But he's looking for answers
And tryin' to find his way again

Can you find it in the eyes of a complete stranger
Can you find it on the screen on the TV
Can you find it in the contents
Of the bottle you tip up tonight to the sky
Or is it a stranger in your own eyes
In your own eyes tonight

(Chorus)

Can you find it in the armsof a complete stranger
Can you find it on the screen on the TV
Can you find it in the concept
Of living with the knowledge of the truth
Then you can say goodbye to the stranger in your own eyes
In your own eyes tonight

Say goodbye - say goodbye - say goodbye
