Strange Alchemy
Got no earthquakes
In my pocket
No crazy songs, no games
No tales of something new
I’ve got no hopes
Of leaving you in laughter
No saddening stories designed
To leave you feeling blue
I’m just really glad
To see you again
Your smile’s like a light shining in
And I’m awfully glad
To call you my friend
There’s no telling just what you’ve been to me
You say you’re waking up these mornings
To find your heart is aching
A hollow feeling
And your eyes are filled with tears
You don’t know why you’re crying
You’ve lost control
There’s no use trying
And old friend understands
And his love will see you clear
And I’m really glad
To see you again
Your smile’s like a light shining in
And I’m awfully glad
To call you my friend
There’s no telling just what you’ve been to me
With our strange alchemy
Bright red moon hangs above the highway
The night so warm and full
Everybody went uptown
While they were drinking I was sitting home
TV’d and thinking
About the times we’ve shared
And how long you’ve been around
And I’m really glad
To see you again
Your smile’s like a light shining in
And I’m awfully glad
To call you my friend
There’s no telling just what you’ve been to me
With our strange alchemy
