Letra de Canción: Strange Attraction



It started with a dedication
"lost in admiration - happy birthday - I'm forever yours - blossom"
Faded red inside a tiny book of butterflies
I smiled surprised at how when flickered through
The wings flew by spelled out my name...

Six months went by the summer lost
Obsessively the letters dropped into my life
The same soft blood smooth flowing hand
"please try to understand - I have to see you - have to feel you -
Tell you all the ways I need you - yours forever in love... "

Strange attraction spreads it's wings
It varies but the smallest things
You never know how anything will change
Strange attraction spreads it's wings
And alters but the smallest things
You never know how anything will fade

The year grew old incessantly she wrote to me
She'd started smoking poetry!
I laughed in recognition of a favourite phrase
She'd pulled me in...
I answered her
A christmas card in sepia
Arranging when and where
And how the two of us should meet...

Her opening so well prepared
A nervous smile
I couldn't take my eyes from her
She whispered
"can I use some of your lipstick?"
It was perfect so believable
I couldn't help but feel that it was real
And kissing crimson fell into her waiting arms...

Strange attraction spreads it's wings
It varies but the smallest things
You never know how anything will change
Strange attraction spreads it's wings
And alters but the smallest things
You never know how anything will fade

So alone into the cold new year without another word from her
I wrote to ask if we could maybe meet again before the spring
But weeks went by with no reply until once more my birthday came
And with it my surprise but this time nothing was the same...

"I'm sorry - blame infatuation - blame imagination -
I was sure you'd be the one but I was wrong -
It seems reality destroys our dreams - I won't forget you - blossom"
Faded red inside a tiny book of old goodbyes...

Strange attraction spreads it's wings
It varies but the smallest things
You never know how anything will change
Strange attraction spreads it's wings
And alters but the smallest things
And you never know...

Letra MP3 de Strange Attraction

Por: The Cure


The Cure es una banda inglesa de rock alternativo que comenzó su carrera a finales de los setenta con la edición del LP Three Imaginary Boys, en un momento musical conocido como Post-Punk. Es muy difícil categorizar a The Cure en un sólo estilo musical tomando en cuenta el sonido de la banda a lo largo de su dilatada carrera, ya que en algunos trabajos se puede escuchar un sonido claramente gótico y oscuro , mientras que en otros se pueden encontrar melodías new wave, pop y ciertos toques de electrónica. No obstante, la apariencia estética “dark” característica del líder de la banda, Robert Smith, frecuentemente vestido con ropa negra y mostrando un rostro pálido y un lápiz de labios borroneado en la boca, sumado a letras que con frecuencia son introspectivas y tenebrosas, han hecho que la banda sea asociada generalmente con el rock gótico. Smith rechaza esta categorización y se niega a enmarcar a la banda dentro de un único género: "Es tan triste que a the Cure se le siga llamando gótico. No somos categorizables. Supongo que eramos Post-Punk cuando salimos, pero globalmente es imposible categorizarnos. Yo toco música de the Cure, sea lo que sea que esto signifique."
