Lyrics The Stranger in Your Voice - The Associates

The Stranger in Your Voice

Here we are for always
For what always knows is all
Funny how we all respond
To our private call
Snug in leather trenchcoats
Braving braver skies
Falling down upon us
From the bridge of sighs
Where all you need is disappointment
To end all your disappointments
Here we are for always
In this citadom of dust
Feel the desert settle down
Feel the desert hushed
Buried with its riches
I’m not one to preach
But all that I can ever say
Is that I’m here to reach
And all we need is disappointment
To end all our disappointments
The stranger in your voice sings songs
You’ve never heard before
The shadow of a legionnaire
Who’s here to even scores
Exiled in a dreamworld
North south east and west
From where I’m standing I can see
Love triumphs by request
Where all you need is disappointment
To end all your disappointments
Laws of nature laws of time
I’m painfully aware
The many friends I’ve left behind
Who said I haven’t cared?
Educate your emotions
Throw away your books
If we can walk this tightrope
It’s best that we don’t look
All you need is disappointment
To end all your disappointments
