Strange Pursuit

(album: Duty Now For The Future - 1979)

Intersecting love lines
Drew us closer every day
Always kept your distance
When you felt my presence near you
love keeps on rolling over

Fly in retreat
I would follow without shame
A stupid spud staggering to the flame
To be had and rehad
Be a victim of the pain
Now it's strange, it's so strange
it's a strange pursuit
it's a strange pursuit
it's a strange pursuit

I come running like a fatboy
In lead shoes
But like a fatboy
Huff puffing after you
It's hopeless to hope for
The one thing that I'm wanting
'Cause it's strange
It's so very strange

It's a strange pursuit
Darling, I'm dazzled
But you know I'm too Frazzled
It's a strange pursuit
Making my mind up
While it lies in little pieces
It's a strange pursuit

You know it's getting tough
When you're getting real rough
It's a strange pursuit
Darling, I'm dazzled
But you know I'm too frazzled
It's a strange pursuit
Making my mind up
While it lies in little pieces
It s a strange pursuit
