Song | Strangers When We Meet |
Artist | David Bowie |
Album | Highlights From The Forthcoming Limited Edition Boxset |
Lyrics:David Bowie Music:David Bowie | |
Yooou, yooou, yooou | |
Yooou, yooou, yooou | |
All our friends | |
Now seem so thin and frail | |
Slinky secrets | |
Hotter than the sun | |
No peachy prayers | |
No trendy rechauffé | |
I'm with you | |
So I can't go on | |
CHORUS | |
All my violence | |
Raining tears upon the sheet | |
I'm bewildered/resentful | |
For we're strangers when we meet | |
Blank screen TV | |
Preening ourselves in the snow | |
Forget my name | |
But I'm over you | |
Blended sunrise | |
And it's a dying world | |
Humming Rheingold | |
We scavenge up our clothes | |
CHORUS | |
Cold tired fingers | |
Tapping out your memories | |
Halfway sadness | |
Dazzled by the new | |
Your embrace | |
Was all that I feared | |
That whirling room | |
We trade by vendu | |
Steely resolve | |
Is falling from me | |
My poor soul | |
All bruised passivity | |
All your regrets | |
Ride rough-shod over me | |
I'm so glad | |
That we're strangers when we meet | |
I'm so thankful | |
That we're strangers when we meet | |
I'm in clover | |
For we're strangers when we meet | |
Heel head over | |
But we're strangers when we meet | |
Strangers when we meet (repeat ad. inf.) |
