Perfect Stranger Songtext
von Erasure

Hell I gave up my time
For a no good affair
You′d think I'd learned by now

To be taken in
By a perfect stranger
That I had the know how

Still more fool me
For kidding myself
That′s the way it should be

Maybe I should grow up
Would I feel confined to the same space?
Or would I feel
That I talked myself into a corner?

So long, you're no friend of mine
You're false and unkind
You′re indestructible

No place I′d rather be
Than in the ring with you
We'd go twenty rounds


Still more fool me
For killing myself
That′s the way it should be

Maybe I should grow up
Would I feel confined to the same space?
Or would I feel
That I talked myself into a corner

I see the sky move above me
But I just can't take control
What a sweet sensation

Love
Sweet, sweet love

Hell I gave up my time
For a no good affair
You′d think I'd learned by now

To be taken in
By a perfect stranger
That I had the know how

Still more fool me
For kidding myself
That′s the way it should be


Maybe I should grow up
Would I feel confined to the same space?
Or would I feel
(So goodbye stranger)
That I talked myself into a corner?
