Ain't it strange How everybody says I love you Ain't it a shame How a word can tell you more than words can say I need you here Ain't it strange 'Cause I'm always thinking of you Ain't it a shame How a thought can catch the breeze and blow away I need you here Oh but I know how bad it can get But I don't mind Baby I don't mind But I know how soon you'll forget me But time keeps blaring Baby time takes care of me Ain't it strange How a man who lives for nothing can change 'Cause if he stays the same he'll die a million days Year by year There's a drain At the bottom of the ocean And when it rains We'll get close to where the water meets the sky For you and I Oh but I don't know how far this could go But I don't mind Baby I don't mind There's no use in saying That you've been straying But even strangers know how strange it can be We're only getting old 'Cause that's what we are told to do But they sang to get through But what's that got to do with us So go on and work it out
