Ed Harcourt Strangers
Songwriters: Harcourt, Ed;Deliciously
I drink up all your tears
On a piano out of tune
I sit and persevere
Deliriously
I eat up all your words
And jumble them around
Till they become absurd
Remember how it was
They said it wouldn't last
You proved them wrong
Took on everyone
Ferociously
We fumble in the dark
Two lovers acting like strangers
Society won't cage us
Oh, remember how it was
They said it wouldn't work
You proved them wrong
Took on everyone
Like a clock that can't keep time
But bad thoughts to hide
Or a poem that can't ever rhyme
Now strangers sing, this song for her
Oh, remember how it was
They said it wouldn't last
You proved them wrong
Took on everyone
Remember how it was
Remember how it was
