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 thinking of you Ain't it a shame How a thought can catch the breeze and blow away I need you here Oh but I know how bad it can get But I don't mind Baby I don't mind But I know how soon you'll forget me But time keeps blaring 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 drain At the bottom of the ocean And when it rains We'll get close to where the water meets the sky For you and I Oh but I don't know how far this could go But I don't mind Baby I don't mind There's no use in saying That you've been straying But even strangers know how strange it can be We're only getting old ' Cause that's what we are told to do But they sang to get through But what's that got to do with us So go on and work it out
