This Strange Obsession

[Chorus]
This strange obsession
Without a lesson
Means only one thing to me
This side of midnight
You'll cling to sheer light
I'll hold you so tight to me

[Verse 1]
I know that voice anywhere
It's so familiar
I have made my choice
Though we are perfect strangers
Your voice
Is like our makers
You cut a shape
So close, it sharpens danger
Cuts like a knife
Reveals the man who's stranger

[Chorus]
This strange obsession
Without a lesson
Means only one thing to me
This side of midnight
You'll cling to sheer light
I'll hold you so tight to me

[Verse 2]
It's turned
Particularly cold
I feel the hand of
Someone I've known
Who is saying the same things to me
And used to do
The same thing to me
You cut a shape
So close, it sharpens danger
Cuts like a knife
Reveals the man who's stranger

[Chorus]
This strange obsession
Without a lesson
Means only one thing to me
This side of midnight
You'll cling to sheer light
I'll hold you so tight to me

[Outro]
This strange obsession
This strange obsession
This strange obsession
