lyrics

Hello Stranger
It’s funny, you’ve been on my mind
I think I saw a glimpse too far
And now I’m wondering
What you’re up to tonight
Do you have some cosmic Hercules
To crawl into bed with?
Have you been seeing each other for ages
Or is it like some on/off thing?
I’m not one for on the spot decisions
But I’m now fully subscribed
You kind of bribed my ego
And told my eyes you’d left your phone inside

I think you and I could have a real Inter-planetary trip
If I just gave this timeline the slip
Or a note from my mother saying
I can’t do reality this week
You were a real moon sliver
A real river of stars
Yeah let’s leave it at that
Let’s all go back to what’s ours

Hello Stranger
It’s funny, you’ve been on my mind
What are you up to tonight?
So have the last drop of your elaborate wine
I didn’t think you’d make it to closing time
Gotta head, Miss Sliver Of Moonlight
And drop like an alkazeltza into the night
What made you last for so long?
Look at you, you made into the last song
I don’t wanna be right, I wanna be wrong
Doesn’t matter anyway,
In a hundred years we’ll all be gone
Tatty bye
Tatty bye
Finish your drink and say goodbye
Tatty bye
