(tom waits for marianne faithful) |
|
Will you take me across the channel, |
|
London bridge is falling down. |
|
Strange a woman tries to save |
|
What a man will try to drown. |
|
And he's the rain that they predicted, |
|
Its the forecast every time. |
|
The rose has died because you picked it |
|
And I believe that brandy's mine. |
|
And all over the world |
|
StrangersTalk only about the weather. |
|
All over the world |
|
It's the same |
|
It's the same |
|
It's the same. |
|
The world is getting flatter, |
|
The sky is falling all around. |
|
And nothing is the matter |
|
For I never cry in town. |
|
And a love like ours, my dear, |
|
Is best measured when it's down. |
|
And I never buy umbrellas, |
|
For there's always one around. |
|
And all over the world strangers talk only about the weather. all over the world it's the same |
|
It's the same |
|
It's the same. |
|
And you know that it's beginning, |
|
And you know that it's the end |
|
When once again we are strangers |
|
And the fog comes rolling in. |
|
And all over the world |
|
StrangersTalk only about the weather. |
|
All over the world |
|
It's the same |
|
It's the same |
|
It's the same. |
