[David Bowie - Strangers When We Meet lyrics]

You you
You

You you
You

All our friends now seem so thin and frail
Slinky secrets hotter than the sun
No peachy prayers no trendy réchauffé
I'm with you so I can't go on

All my violence raining tears upon the sheets
I'm bewildered
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

All my violence raging tears upon the sheets
I'm resentful
For we're strangers when we meet

Cold tired fingers tapping out your memories
Halfway sadness dazzled by the new
Your embrace it was all that I feared
That whirling room we trade by vendu

Steely resolve is falling from me
My poor soul, poor bruised passivity
All your regrets ran 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
Strangers when we meet
Strangers when we meet
Strangers when we meet
Strangers when we meet
Strangers when we meet
Strangers when we meet
Strangers when we meet
Strangers when we meet
