Stranger Underneath Your Skin (home demo) Songtext
von Crowded House

Never used to be that sad
The sun will light your way, uh-huh
And more than promises, all it can
But now you sit to watch the daylight fade

Oh, tell me please, tell me what went wrong

I never knew when you were laughing me
I thought you had it all in your head
I thought you had it all in your head

When you entrusted yourself to him
A dangerous thing to do, ′cause in return
He was supposed to enslave himself
Turn his head into a shrine for you

So, tell me please, tell me what went wrong


I never knew when you were laughing me
I thought you had it all in your head

Tell me please, tell me what went wrong

And when I touch you, you don't feel the same
′Cause there's a stranger underneath your skin
And there's a stranger underneath your skin

So come on, let the sunshine in
This house is gold and grey, uh-huh
But now you know how the real world is
Fight to meet you every single day

Hey, tell me please, tell me what went wrong

I never knew when you were laughing at me
I thought you had it all in your head
Hold me please, hold me all night long

And if I touch you, you don′t feel the same
′Cause there's a stranger underneath your skin
