SOME KIND OF STRANGER

words by andrew eldritch music by gary marx





And yes I believe in what we had

But words got in the way

And only yesterday

As I was leaving

Lord knows I've tried to say but I've

Heard a million conveprsations

Going where they've been before

Seen the way that careful lingers

Undecided at the door



CHORUS



And all I know for sure

All I know for real

Is knowing doesn't mean so much

When placed against the feeling

The heat inside

When bodies meet

When fingers touch



All my words are secondhand and

Useless in the face of this

Rationale and rhyme and reason

Pale beside a single kiss

And I've heard so many things I

Fail to understand at all

I'd settle anytime for

Unknown footsteps in the hall outside



CHORUS



Because the world is cruel and

Promises are broken

Don't try to tell me

Anything don't try to tell me

You'll be true to me you know the

Real truth is never spoken

And I know the world is cold but

If you hold on tight to what you

Find you might not mind too much though

Even this must pass away and

Memories may last for years but

Names are just for souveniers

Some kind of angel let me

Look into your eyes

Don't give me whys and wherefores

Reason or surprise

I don't care for words that don't belong

And I don't care what you're called

Tell me later if at all

I can wait a long long time

Before I hear another love song



Come here I think you're beautiful

My door is open wide

Some kind of angel come inside





Come here I think you're beautiful

I think you're beautiful beautiful

Some kind of angel come inside



Come here I think you're beautiful

I think you're beautiful

Some kind of angel come inside



Come here I think you're beautiful

My door is open wide

Some kind of stranger come inside







Come here I think you're beautiful

I think you're beautiful beautiful

Some kind of stranger come inside



Come here I think you're beautiful

I think you're beautiful

Some kind of stranger come inside
