Ain't it strange
how everybody says "I love you."
Ain't it a shame
how a word can tell you more than words can say?
I need you here.
Ain't it strange
'cause I'm always thinkin' of you
Ain't it a shame
how a thought can catch the breeze and blow away?
And leave you here.
Oh, but I know how bad it can get
((bad it can get))
but I don't mind, baby
I don't mind
((I don't mind))
But I know how soon you'll forget
((soon you'll forget))
Time keeps wearin', baby.
Time takes care of me.
Ain't it strange,
how a man who lives for nothing can change?
'cause if he stays the same, he'll die a million days,
year by year.
There's a train,
at the bottom of the ocean
And when it rains,
it gets close to where the water meets the sky,
for you and I.
Oh, but I don't know how far this can go
((bad it can get))
but I don't mind, baby
I don't mind
((I don't mind))
There's no use in sayin'
what you've been sprayin'
Even strangers know how strange it can be.
We're only gettin' old
'cause that's what we were told
to do.
But they say we're gettin' through,
But what's that got to do
with us?
So come on and work it out.
