Stranger To Himself |
| He was a stranger to himself |
| A spy in his own camp |
| And his money was his health |
| All thrown to the dust by his very own hand |
| Yet his beauty lingered still |
| Beyond the draining of the sand |
| But greener was the other side of the hill |
| Richer was the other man’s land |
| But we loved him, loved him just like brothers would |
| We loved him, loved him like no others could |
| And she loved him, loved him like a lover should |
| Take good care of an aching heart |
| You never can replace it |
| You know you are the master of your heart |
| You’ll realise that when you think it fit |
| Those orbs of blue are jading away |
| No laughter from them dances |
| Yet you’re bound to remember this one day |
| Hazards are risks and risks are chances |
| You can run for cover, run for cover like a frightened hare |
| Till it’s all over, all over and there’s no-one there |
| 'Cos you daren’t discover, daren’t discover that we really care |
