Lover I remember
|
Laying out a map
|
Throwing our possessions
|
In the van
|
|
Your tapes piled on the backseat
|
And a camera in your hand
|
Dressed for our arrival
|
In the Strangeland
|
|
Strangeland blind
|
You got no reason, you got no rhyme
|
You give no time
|
To put things right [x2]
|
|
You drove across the border
|
As the winter rains ran dry
|
And only fateful birdsong
|
Filled the sky
|
|
You threw your head back screaming
|
As we raced across wet sand
|
And lept into the waters
|
Of the Strangeland
|
|
Strangeland blind
|
You got no reason, you got no rhyme
|
You give no time
|
To put things right [x2]
|
|
You wound the rope around me
|
And you pulled the knots in tight
|
And shook me like a bad dream
|
From your sight
|
|
And now the things I've done to forget you
|
Well it's not what I had planned
|
The sweetest thoughts get twisted
|
In the Strangeland
|
|
Strangeland blind
|
You got no reason, you got no rhyme
|
You give no time to put things right
|
To put things-
|
|
Strangeland dreams
|
You tore my baby away from me
|
We get no time
|
To put things right [x2]
|
|
You give no time
|
To put things right [x4]
|
