"Strange Love" - Bats for Lashes (original by Depeche Mode)
I was walking through a brightly lit, very messy and very trendy clothing store, but became too distracted by the clutter on the floor to shop. It aggravated me how little people care nowadays to make a place presentable. It's like having guests come over to a filfthy house. Why even invite them?! Why would I want to try on something that's been used as a mop against the sticky linoleum by other careless customers' feet?! So what if it's at a discount? Am I asking for too much here? I wouldn't even take it for free! So, obviously I was in no mood to rummage through the sale racks since all their stuff was off the hangers, spilling from cardboard boxes while the "nicer" stuff got ransacked like it was Black Friday! I'll fight for a good price, but not like this. Not on an average day when sh*t should be kept in order. No. I have my limits and just didn't want to deal with the chaos that is the retail world. So, I sat near the front and allowed myself the pleasure of hearing this song. Thank goodness a good cover came on... How I wished there was one for this store.
Lyrics:
Strangelove
Strange highs and strange lows
Strangelove
That's how my love goes
Strangelove
Will you give it to me
Will you take the pain
I will give to you
Again and again
And will you return it
There'll be times
When my crimes
Will seem almost unforgivable
I give in to sin
Because you have to make this life livable
But when you think I've had enough
From your sea of love
I'll take more than another riverful
Yes I'll make it all worthwhile
I'll make your heart smile
Strangelove
Strange highs and strange lows
Strangelove
That's how my love goes
Strangelove
Will you give it to me
Will you take the pain
I will give to you
Again and again
And will you return it
Pain will you return it (again and again)
I'll say it again - pain
Pain will you return it (again and again)
I'll say it again - pain
Pain will you return it (again and again)
I'll say it again - pain
Pain will you return it (again and again)
I'll say it again - pain
Strangelove
Strange highs and strange lows
Strangelove
That's how my love goes
Strangelove
Will you give it to me
Will you take the pain
I will give to you
Again and again
And will you return it
