Lyrics Strangers - Ed Harcourt

Strangers

Deliciously
I drink up all your tears
On a piano out of tune
I sit and persevere
Deliriously
I eat up all your words
And jumble them around
'Til they become absurd
Remember how it was
They said it wouldn’t last
You proved them wrong
Took on everyone
Like a clock that can’t keep time
Bad thoughts to hide
Or a poem that won’t ever rhyme
Now strangers sing, this song for her
Mao mao etc. etc.
Oh remember how it was
they said it wouldn’t last
You proved them wrong
Took on everyone
Remember how it was
Remember how it was
