Strange Companion Lyrics

Strange Companion lyrics

They beat him til he broke in two

Bit harder than they meant

No driver but the aching world

It falls and loves descent



Trees on tiptoe looking up

A million eyes a blinking hill

No clutching hand to turn me on

No foot to force my thrill



They beat him til he broke in two

And half of him they locked in me

I didn’t see which half it was

They neutralled me and set me free



Does unattached a head still dream?

Do legs still ramble on?

The sun appears the forest screams

It is a flash and then is gone

Oh my strange companion

Oh my strange companion



And nature comes to welcome us

With tiny jaws and little grins

(I didn't know she's everywhere

I'd never ever seen her win)



We’ll cry you and I, be together til we die

It’s great just you wait, listen to the freeway

One year, maybe dear, somebody will find us here

But now, funny how nature has her way with me



Does unattached a head still dream?

Do legs still ramble on?

The sun appears the forest screams

It is a flash and then is gone

Oh my strange companion

Oh my strange companion



Pirates by the roadside

But they don’t want me

Pirates by the roadside

To set the metal free
