Strange Weather

(album: Strange Weather - 1987)

Will you take me across the Channel
London Bridge is falling down
Strange a woman tries to save
What a man will try to drown
And he's the rain that they predicted
It's the forecast every time
The rose has died because you picked it
And I believe that brandy's mine

And all over the world
Strangers
Talk only about the weather
All over the world
It's the same
It's the same
It's the same

The word is getting flatter
The sky is falling all around
And nothing is the matter
For I never cry in town
And a love like ours, my dear
Is best measured when it's down
And I never buy umbrellas
For there's always one around

And all over the world
Strangers
Talk only about the weather
All over the world
It's the same
It's the same
It's the same

And you know that it's beginning
And you know that it's the end
When once again we are strangers
And the fog comes rolling in

And all over the world
Strangers
Talk only about the weather
All over the world
It's the same
It's the same
It's the same
