The Strangest Kind

(albüm: Love & Hope & Sex & Dreams - 1986)

Well, I've heard about a love that's like a memory
And I've heard about a love that's like a dream
Said I've heard about a love that's always fighting
It's the strangest kind that you've ever seen

And I've heard about a love that never quits, man
Let me tell you 'bout a love running out of steam
And then there's a love that can't stop crying
It's the strangest kind that you've ever seen

Well, there's a love flashing like lightning
And there's a love crawling on its knees
And there's a love so strong that it's frightening
Well, that's the kind of love I'm a-wanting to see

Y'know, I've heard about a love that can make you whisper
And I've heard about a love oughta make you scream
And I've heard about a love, nothing but hatred
It's the strangest kind that you've ever seen

Well, there's a love flashing like lightning
And there's a love crawling on its knees
And there's a love so strong that it's frightening
Well, that's the kind of love I'm a-wanting to see

Y'know, I've heard about a love like Old Delilah
And I've heard about a love like you and me
And I've heard about a love like my mom and pop have
I know it's the strangest kind that you've ever seen
