Lyrics

Strange Love

Love, love is strange oh oh oh

When there's beauty on the inside

The outside there's nothing to

Ch-ch ch-ch ch-ch change

In the life that I know

Or after it I wanna be

Someone to love

With someone watching over me

Rain or storm

The only place I wanna be is

Close to the heart of

Everything you'd ever need

The lightnings not frightening when you are with me

Oh 'cause love is not always what you think it'll be

Love oh oh love is strange oh oh oh

When there's beauty on the inside

The outside there's nothing to

Ch-ch ch-ch ch-ch change

Strange love, strange love for one another

Strange love, strange love for one another

Can't judge a book by its cover

Strange love, strange love for one another

Love, love is strange oh oh oh

When there's beauty on the inside

The outside there's nothing to

Ch-ch ch-ch ch-ch change

The lightnings not frightening when you are with me

Oh 'cause love is not always what you think it'll be

Love oh oh love is strange oh oh oh

When there's beauty on the inside

The outside there's nothing to

Ch-ch ch-ch ch-ch change

Strange love, strange love for one another

Strange love, strange love for one another

Can't judge a book by its cover

Strange love, strange love for one another

Strange love, strange love for one another

Strange love, strange love for one another

Can't judge a book by its cover

Strange love, strange love for one another
