lyrics

Hello, strange and lovely - who's loving you?
Does he make you feel alive?
I know my gaze is heavy, but my heart is true, and blue stained by this deep-sea dive.

The world spinning makes it better, and loves clearly on your side,
If strawberries turn bitter, I'll be the sweetness you're denied.

Dreams are wrapped around you, a thousand turns,
Dark strands weaving through your glow.
Gently crushed beneath the shoes you wear,
Into the earth like virgin snow.

You're the proof that stardust sits in our bones, you're the cool undying breeze.
The soaring sky above a valley low, the warm sun that chases off the freeze.
