"Strange Things" lyrics

"Strange Things"

Sitting across from a stranger
You can't live without
A voice that lights your way
Don't know whose it is
A body you don't know
Suddenly belongs only to you
Nothing to do when every day
You want to kiss a stranger's fears away

Strange things go down
When love hangs around

The clumsiness of it
The fumbling, crashing, fuck of it
The bandaged mess
The worn, torn angel scars
It doesn't matter how we break
When we're falling
Love keeps us crawling
Shoot down the drone

Strange things go down
When love hangs around

Ooh, out of control
It's a useless fight I know
When love is running the show
It punishes us with the ordinary
With nothing to say
You out by the water
Me getting in your way

Strange things go down
When love hangs around
