Isn't It Strange? Songtext

von David Ford

Darling, it needs to be said
We're still young but our love is stone dead
Cold as the sheets on the big empty bed
Where I will not lay down anymore

Time will win at every race
The wrecking ball swings at a glacial pace
It creeps up upon you like the lines on your face
And the aches at the end of the day

Oh, isn't it strange?
Strange, but is it any less true
That I spent the best years of my life just waiting on you?
All for the change
Change isn't easy to see
So you spent the best years of your life just trying to change me

Well, I look at the world and I feel small
Seems much further back up every time that you fall
So you have no hard feelings?
I have no feelings at all
Still, I hope I can see you around

And someday we'll look back and we'll see
I was not right for you, you were not meant for me
If we were made for each other, we were made imperfectly
From pieces that would never fit right

So isn't it strange?
It's strange, but it is it any less true
That I spent the best years of my life waiting on you?
All for the change
Change isn't easy to see
So you spent the best years of your life just trying to change me
Oh, trying to change me
