Strangers (The Summer Of Fourteen Version)

from Paris In The Future (Single) by Silverlode

/

about

Recorded live and acoustic as part of The Summer of Fourteen project.

lyrics

After the trial came the fire...
I took it on the chin as best I could
I am now working on the lock to the vault in my mind
Like a stately home abandoned to the vines

She left me in the summertime
Walked wounded into autumn, fit to die
But I barred the windows against the winter that began ---
Tried to do my penance quietly but I'm not that kind of man

Now, as strangers we meet in the night
As strangers we meet in another life
As strangers, we are spared the strife
I was a fool to wish it any other way

After the grief comes repair....
Didn’t know everything was temporary
Time will work its weight on all plans in the end
Also didn’t realise my broken heart would mend

Still, what we did will never change
Those memories will never fade
The lives we truly touch, they are few and far between
And I, I guess you recognise your fingerprints on me

But as strangers we meet in the night
As strangers we meet in another life
As strangers, we are spared the strife
I was a fool to wish it any other way

I don't want to die in a place where I am blind
I don't know why I can't leave you behind
The means to damn the lovers throughout time
You will burn and I will burn tonight

As strangers we meet in the night
There are strangers walking up and down my life
And strangers in the background all the time
I was a fool to wish it any other way
I was a fool to wish it any other way
I was a fool to wish it any other way
