You may be someone else's sweetheart
Fighting someone else's war
And if you suffer for the millions
Then it's what you're fighting for

Someone believes in only light of day
Someone strong enough to show the way
Someone everyone believes in
Someone who
Will stand by you

And I will be your heart and mind
My love is on the line
I know it's how I'm gonna stay
For a stranger in a strange land far away

And love will make your spirit shine
I feel your hand in mine
I write a letter every single day
To a stranger in a strange land far away

May we share the most tomorrows
I will hear you when you cry
Should we let it come between us
Never knowing how we live or die

I will walk you through the pouring rain
I will help you learn to live and love again
Give 'em hell before you go to heaven
But send you home again

And I will be your heart and mind
My love is on the line
I know it's how I'm gonna stay
For a stranger in a strange land far away

And somewhere in the lonely night
Your flame is burning bright
I know it's how I'm gonna stay
For a stranger in a strange land far away

And just to see your spirit shine
To feel your hand in mine
I write a letter every single day
To a stranger in a strange land far away

Ooooh Oooh ooh ooh
Far away

Barbra Streisand is an Oscar-winning, Tony-winning, Emmy-winning, Golden Globe-winning Broadway legend, film star, movie director and one of the biggest-selling recording artists of all time - a staggering amount of accomplishments for someone whose mother insisted she not to go into show business.

By the time she was sixteen, she’d graduated high school and was living on her own in Manhattan. After winning a talent contest at a gay bar on West 9th Street, Streisand’s ‘spellbinding’ voice quickly became popular at New York clubs and in Broadway shows. After appearances on a number of popular television shows including The Tonight Show, Streisand signed with Columbia Records and released several top 10 albums in the 1960s, scoring two US top 40 hits with “People” and “Second Hand Rose”.

Her success as a recording artist continued through the 1970s with several more gold/platinum-certified albums and four US “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers”, “No More Tears”, the Oscar-winning “The Way We Were”, and the Academy Award-winning “Evergreen (Love Theme from A Star Is Born)”. The 1980s would begin with Streisand’s biggest-selling release of her career Guilty, a collaborative effort with BeeGees member Barry Gibb. It topped the albums chart in several countries and as did its lead single “Woman In Love”.
