"Strange Perfumes" lyrics

"Strange Perfumes"

Strange perfumes. Long lost rooms

That blue day came and it stayed all night
Blue morning. Blue midnight
The city fell and then you were gone
What is love but a robin's song?

Ooh, these days. These endless blue days
They're perfect in their own way
Perfect in their own way

Ooh, those days that come too soon
Strange perfumes. Long lost rooms
They're perfect in their own way
Perfect in their own way

Where does love go when love is gone?
To what war-torn city?
Ooh, those blue days that stayed too long
What is love but a robin's song?

Ooh, these days. These endless blue days
They're perfect in their own way
Perfect in their own way

Where does love go when love is gone?
To what war-torn city?
Ooh, those blue days that stayed too long
