Shes like a mermaid
Locked in the dungeon of a sunken ship
She thinks shes happy
Though shes been drawn in by shallow things
She closes her eyes
And he keeps all the treasure he finds
In the back of my mind
I hear the devil sing
Its a strange kind of love
A strange kind of love
Its a strange kind of love
That keeps me hanging on
She sees the future
Built on promises and dreams
Some people
Could see you anything
Angel,
Dont let him clip your wings
He may give you what he has
But Id give you anything
Its a strange kind of love
A strange kind of love
Its a strange kind of love
That leaves me so alone
In every second car that passes theres a man like him
At ease in the world of television and magazines
Trampled and broken
What once was a timeless thing
In the heart of the night
I feel the Winter sting
Its a strange kind of love
A strange kind of love
Its a strange kind of love
That keeps me hoping still
Shes written my story
For the whole world to see
In the lines beneath my eyes
She bathes me with pity
I could never be your friend
If I could never by you King
Im wide open
Can you hear the devil sing?
Its a strange kind of love
A strange kind of love
Its a strange kind of love
That keeps me hanging on
I hear the devil sing
