Stray lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Stray lyrics Words and music by Roddy Frame You don t have to tell me what you re still looking for, Two arms to hold you and a voice to say, "That s alright, you can spend the night", Well, come around. Cos I ve been there and these are the notes From the overground, The World Saxaphone Quartet, the smell of violets, And a passing friend won t let you down. Listen to the rhythm of the rain falling, Say you re gonna change your foolish ways. Make a promise, break a promise in the same day, It goes the same way, anyway. So you pray for silence and its sadness and its violence To be washed away, One day. I understand the state you ve reach of being unreachable, Somewhere out there where only the music plays. Loneliness and being alone don t always mean the same, Who needs the movie? You can see the music anyway. A Sketch For Winter, a Burgundy and sanctuary Can make me stay when I feel that way. And if my words don t say the things that they were meant to say, And if confusion comes and carries all my words away, And if you still don t understand, I wanna hold your hand, and look at it this way... Someone singing s better than the war they re winning Winging its way, your way or my way, Any day, any way, stray. song lyrics
