Is It Really So Strange?
The Smiths
Letra

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
