It's easy to be careless let a lifetime hurry by Live aimlessly forever and be nothing til you die I would have let that happen, but suddenly I found My little world invaded by a strange and lovely sound Softly through the rush and roar of day When the still of night draws near From the depths of somewhere far away A strange and lovely song I hear Tumblin' shapes and clouds of melody Spin my troubles through the air Steal the key and find the harmony Of a strange and lovely song so rare Before all my dreams were a pattern
Fading colors of grey and brown and blue But these patterns are changing to pictures And I feel like I am changing too Though I wander through a haunting haze Touched by sounds I cannot see I shall someday understand who plays Such a strange and lovely song to me But these patterns are changing to pictures And I feel like I am changing too Though I wander through a haunting haze Touched by sounds I cannot see I shall oneday understand who plays Such a strange and lovely song to me
