Lindisfarne
Strange Affair
Barret-Hull

It's a strange way when you're looking with your eyes
A strange way talking when you're talking lies
It's a strange affair, it's a strange affair

It's a strange way you're walking when you walk a crooked mile
It's a strange way smiling when you got a crooked smile
It's a strange affair, it's a strange affair

And you stand there proud with your blue dress on
Trying to convince me, that you're the one
Well look at the wall, there's a mirror there
Better talk to because it don't swear

It's a strange way of thinking when you don't use your mind
Strange way you're loving when you leave it behind
It's a strange affair, it's a strange affair

It's a strange way you listen when you hear no voice
Strange way of you choosin' when you give no choice
It's a strange affair, it's a strange affair

Well one day maybe you're wandering around
And if you use your eyes you might hear the sound
Of the millions you mastered trying to drown
Sometimes quicksand comes to solid ground
It's a strange affair, strange affair, strange strange strange affair

It's a strange affair when you think of the end
You look for love and what you find a friend
It's a strange affair, it's a strange affair

One day maybe when the book is read
Gonna find it on the face and don't believe what you've said
It's a strange affair, it's a strange affair

And you'll go down in histories as a woman of the world
But you ended up your life like a frightened little girl
Playing with your balls on the tennis court
You didn't mix in, 'cause you're not that sort

It's a strange affair, strange affair, strange strange strange affair. 5 x ( fade )
