The Fratellis - Hello Stranger
Since we rode our luck where we once belonged
I think of you sometimes when the air is clear
I wonder are you near?
Sometimes the end is sweet
Though when it comes to you my poor heartbeat
Gets out of sync and time plays tricks
Old visions of you are where this boy sticks
I seen you in these books i read
Are you still being born at breakneck speed?
Sometimes there’s no confession on this earth
That will not leave you bound
Listen to the streetcars breathing
The night is young and life is calling
I’ll see you when the dream gets moving
Lift your eyes the world is watching
And after all we both know how this ends
We both know we must give back what we spend
Hello stranger did you ever find
All those priceless jewels that you kept entwined?
I sometimes hear your name when the day gets slow
I wonder did you know that i left your house praying
While those words I spoke hung upside down?
Listen to the streetcars breathing
The night is young and life is calling
I’ll see you when the dream gets moving
Lift your eyes the world is watching
And after all we both know how this ends
We both know we just give back what we spend
Listen to the streetcars breathing
The night is young and live is calling
I’ll see you when the dream gets moving
Lift your eyes the world is watching
So lose those sad eyes and be on your way
Keep your friends close and your love on display
And after all we both know how this ends
We both know we must give back what we spend
Let it out turn around slip away
Maybe we’ll meet again some day
Let it out turn around slip away
Maybe we’ll meet again some day
Let it out turn around slip away
Maybe we’ll meet again some day
Let it out turn around slip away
Maybe we’ll meet again some day
