A Strange Day [live]

The Cure · Pornography (Deluxe Re-Issue Disc 2) [2005]

(This is the first time we've done this onstage. This is called A Strange Day)



Give me your eyes

That I might see

The blind man kissing my hands

The sun is humming

My head turns to dust

As he plays on his knees

As he plays on his knees



The sand and the sea grows

I close my eyes

Move slowly through a drowning wave

Going away on a strange day



And I laugh as I drift in the wind

Blind dancing on a beach of stone

Cherish the faces as they wait for the end

A sudden hush across the water

And we're here again



And the sand and the sea grows

I close my eyes

Move slowly through a drowning wave

Going away on a strange day



Suddenly, suddenly

The air crash down

And the sky and the impossible explode

Held for a moment I remember a song

An impression of sound

And then everything is gone forever



A strange day

A strange day
