"The Boy Feels Strange" lyrics
"The Boy Feels Strange"
He looks at me in wonder
Looks at me in fear
Wrestling with his anger
His pride and stony tears
To place me in his life
Will be hard and slow
Does he want it, need it?
I might never know
Boy feels strange
Oh... boy has changed
Looking from my tower
I can see his fortress strong
Surrounded by his army
Where do I belong?
Does he ever find the answers
In the cars as they go by?
Does he ever want to ask me why?
The boy feels strange
Oh... boy has changed
And he's seen with all the women
Who think that he's a god
And he blesses whom he pleases
Holding fast to the facade
I want to reach out and believe him
Through his miles and miles of pain
But lately when I touch him
Boy, that feels strange
And he speaks to me of business
When I ask him how he's been
Keeps me at a distance
Never getting under skin
Can he make a new beginning?
Does he even want to try?
Or will he only let it die?
The boy feels strange
Oh... the boy has changed
Mm
Mm
Oh
Oh

Vienna Teng - "Daughter" Well it's you and it's me
Me with a drink in my hand
The ice is tinkling like a windchime
And late afternoon settles over the land
And you're talking about things
Interesting just slightly
And...
Aimee Mann - "Rollercoasters" Rollercoasters and ferris wheels
You like how it feels
Round and round till you lose yourself in the air
All those complicated deals
Your desperate appeals
Calling out to a god you know isn't there...
Sophie B. Hawkins - "I Want You" Guilty undertaker sighs
Lonely organ grinder cries
Silver saxophones say I
I should refuse you
Cracked bells and washed out horns
Blow into my face with scorn
It's not that way
I wasn't born to lose...
Marc Cohn - "Ellis Island" I was driving down Ninth Avenue
As the sky was getting dark
Didn't have nothin' else to do
So I kept on riding to Battery Park
I stepped out in the damp and misty night
As the fog was rolling in
Man...
Ry Cooder - "The Way We Make A Broken Heart" Just a one more kiss
He'll have to miss
This night with you
Now you're guilty of this secret love as I am too
You'll get used to telling lies
And feeling sorry when he cries
Now that the strings are...
