I am a stranger on this stage till love appears
For love is knowing, love is being known
I dreamed you long before the pages of these years
Brought me this lonely film I'm seeing alone
Stranger in my time
Soon I will be home
Stranger in my time
And if a dream describes a kind of memory
Between a place and time that's yet to come
And one that's been, a life both mine and meant for me
I've seen your face behind each and every one
Stranger in my time
Soon I will be home
Stranger in my time
Know you're not alone
Love you
So when I see that change of light behind your eyes
As you remember me from your own dreams
It's then I'll be the stranger quietly recognised
And we'll make sense at last of all we've been
Stranger in my time
Soon I will be home
Stranger in my time
Know you're not alone

John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser.
Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this.
Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?).
With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP. yellowcakeuf6

There's a similarity in song writing between Richard Thompson and Hugh Cornwell which maybe isn't surprising as they went to the same school at the same time, although Thompson is older.
Due to Thompson's association with John French of Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band I searched for his work on the Bandcamp app. French, Thompson and Cornwell all have albums on the app which I'm very pleased about. Only Thompson has released contemporary albums, much to his credit. yellowcakeuf6
