"Strange Eyes" lyrics
"Strange Eyes"
Strange eyes, blue clocks without hands
Two lives lived in distant lands
Little blue mysteries
What did they see in me?
Strange eyes, early Picassos
Call me even when you don't
If only from pictures
It having been three years
They follow me in all my dreams
Oh God, I'm still in love with you
Strange eyes, two little star charts
Plunge knives into my poor heart
As lovely as a tree
They endlessly recede
Strange eyes, two little whirlpools
Made by God to destroy fools
Two pearls of infinite cost
Two paradises lost
They swallow me in all my dreams
Oh God, I'm still in love with you

If they follow you
Don't look back...

There is something wrong with me

Cat Power - "American Flag" My friend
Sits at the drum
His magic hand
Feels nothing but
Time
Nothing but time
My old friend
Sits at the drum
His magic mind
Doesn't feel anything
