I left the north

I traveled south

I found a tiny house

and I can't help the way I feel

Oh yes, you can kick me

And you can punch me

And you can break my face

But you won't change the way I feel

'Cause I love you

And is it really so strange?

Oh, is it really so strange?

Oh, is it really so, really so strange?

I say no, you say yes

(and you will change your mind)

I left the south

I traveled north

I got confused - I killed a horse

I can't help the way I feel

Oh yes, you can punch me

And you can butt me

And you can break my spine

But you won't change the way I feel

'Cause i love you

And is it really so strange?

Oh, is it really so strange?

Oh, is it really so, really so strange?

I say no, you say yes

(but you will change your mind)

I left the north again

I traveled south again

and I got confused - I killed a nun

I can't help the way I feel

I can't help the way I feel

I can't help the way I feel

(I lost my bag in Newport Pagnell)

Why is the last mile the hardest mile?

My throat was dry, with the sun in my eyes

And I realized, I realized

I could never

I could never, never, never

Go back home again
