Lover I remember

Laying out a map

Throwing our possessions

In the van

Your tapes piled on the backseat

And a camera in your hand

Dressed for our arrival

In the strangeland

Strangeland blind

You got no reason, you got no rhyme

You give no time

To put things right [x2]

You drove across the border

As the winter rains ran dry

And only fateful birdsong

Filled the sky

You threw your head back screaming

As we raced across wet sand

And lept into the waters

Of the strangeland

Strangeland blind

You got no reason, you got no rhyme

You give no time

To put things right [x2]

You wound the rope around me

And you pulled the knots in tight

And shook me like a bad dream

From your sight

And now the things I've done to forget you

Well it's not what I had planned

The sweetest thoughts get twisted

In the strangeland

Strangeland blind

You got no reason, you got no rhyme

You give no time to put things right

To put things-

Strangeland dreams

You tore my baby away from me

We get no time

To put things right [x2]

You give no time

To put things right [x4]
