Eurythmics:
Love is a StrangerYou think this is the best stanza ever written on the topic of love:
It's savage and it's cruel
And it shines like destruction.
Comes in like the flood
And it seems like religion
It's noble and it's brutal
It distorts and deranges
And it wrenches you up
And you're left like a zombie.
But then, a mere 23 seconds later, you're confronted with this:
It's guilt edged,
glamorous and sleek by design
You know it's jealous by nature
False and unkind
It's hard and restrained
And it's totally cool
It touches and it teases
As you stumble
In the debris.
So...you know...
