Well, everything goes back and forth
You know it never ends
And some are gonna burn away
And some of them pretend
But once there was a stranger
Who stopped me in the street
He told me love was in his head
And then he ceased to be
Yea, when I looked the other way
He split himself in two
And part of him just ran away
The other part won't move
So take a look inside your head
And tell me what you see
Is the stranger waiting there
Singing you to sleep?
Well, things come screaming in your ear
And future turns to past
And you're not listening anyway
And nothing ever lasts
But once there was a stranger
Who stopped me in the street
He told me love was in his head
And then he ceased to be
