The Kinks - Perfect Strangers lyrics

rate me

Everytime we meet

My heart skips a beat

Seems we're Perfect Strangers

I can't understand

What's inside of man

That makes us Perfect Strangers

Through all this time so lonely

All the people with nobody

With life's misunderstandings

Feel I've known you all my life

There's something quite familiar

In your eyes a soul is calling

Do you ever wonder why?

Everytime we meet

A sympathetic beat

In the heart of strangers

Here the love it calls

But you don't know me at all

Seems we're Perfect Strangers

Just like Perfect Strangers

Ever looked up to the sky

On a night so melancholy

Feel the angry world around you

Really need someone to talk to

Doesn't mind you feel so crazy

Where's the understanding stranger

Or the understanding lover

I know there'll come a day

When peace will touch the heart of you

Until then I will say

Open up your eyes

You're not hypnotised

We're not really strangers

You don't understand

That in the heart of man

There's no Perfect Strangers

Seems like Perfect Strangers

Everytime we meet

A sympathetic beat

In the heart of strangers

Seems like Perfect Strangers

Repeats...
