This is a Gstrange affair
The Ctime has come to travel but the Groad is filled with Cfear
This is a Gstrange affair
My Cyouth has all been wasted and I'm Gbent and grey with Cyears
And Fall my comCpanions are Gtaken aCway
And Fwho will proCvide for me aGgainst my dying Cday'
I Ftook my own proCvision but it Dmthrew me and Amwasted awGay
This is a CstrFanGge, this is a strange afCfair
Oh, where are my companions'
My mother, father, lover, friend and enemy
Where are my companions'
They're prisoners of death now and taken far from me
And where are the dreams I dreamed in the days of my youth'
They took me to illusion and they promised me the truth
And what do sleepers need to make them listen, why do they need more
proof
This is a strange, this is a strange affair
