"Our strange ways" lyrics

"Our strange ways"

Somewhere in a great hall
You play the piano
I am over the sea and far away
With my eyes on the target
And I sing my songs for you

Somewhere in a Greyhound station
I'm singing for change
I don't know you
In a crowd I couldn't pick out your face
And I'm singing for a man who did me wrong
And nobody sings along
I am free but lonely
I have nowhere to go
No commitments, no obligations
And no soul

A world without you is not one I want to live in
Is not one I want to know
I want to hold
It is so sad and so cold
A world without you is not one I need to see
I need to have
I hate to think somewhere there is a world like that

You live in the forest
With your guitars and your lovers
You have so many muses to write your songs
They all tell you they love you
Why does it feel so wrong?
We have never sat side by side
Never really known
How it feels to touch each other
Body and soul
It's all there is now
When you say it I believe that I am beautiful
Hard to imagine
From the other side of it all
From the starting line
I thought I would stay with him my whole life
That's where the road diverged
That's where the path was split
That's where the choice was made
To move on or quit
If you were someone else
If I had stayed
We would be strangers
In our strange ways

A world without you is not one I want to live in
Is not one I want to know
I want to hold
A world without you is not one I need to see
I need to have
I hate to think somewhere there is a world like that

A world without you
A world without you
A world without you
A world without you
A world without you
A world without you

Watch the sun coming through
Open the blinds
You say I look beautiful
In this light
Looking glass to the sun
Burst into flames
You set me on fire
I remember everything
