Strangest Thing
Fono Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I, I take the narrow
I take the narrow road to lead
I, I fall to the wider
I fall to the wider road ahead

I try not to listen,
To the voices in my head
I stick to the narrow
Stick to the narrow
Stick to the narrow
Road ahead, road ahead

It's the strangest thing
You blow my world apart
It's the strangest thing
Inside my heart

And I know love is the strangest thing
It is the strangest thing
I said that I know love is the strangest thing
It is the strangest thing

I, I've never wanted
No I've never wanted for anything
I, I've touched the gold
And the sadness it can bring

I, I've felt the healing
Yes, I've felt the healing of the Lord
I, I've seen the strangest
Yes, I've seen the strangest
Strangest things, strangest things

It's the strangest thing
You blow my world apart
It's the strangest thing
Inside my heart

It's the strangest thing
To never know an end
It's the strangest thing
Ever to start

And I know love is the strangest thing
It is the strangest thing




I said that I know love is the strangest thing
It is the strangest thing

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Fono's song Strangest Thing seem to touch on the idea of following a path in life, and the choices we make to either stay on track or stray away. The first verse mentions two roads, a narrow one and a wider one. The singer chooses the narrow road to lead, but also falls to the wider road ahead. This can be interpreted as a metaphor for life's choices, where the singer attempts to stick to the safe and secure path, but sometimes gets lost in the excitement of the unknown. The second verse delves into the singer's experiences with various emotions and experiences, such as encountering sadness after touching gold, but also feeling healing from the Lord. The chorus is where the title of the song comes in, as the singer acknowledges that love is the strangest thing. It blows their world apart and resides inside their heart, never knowing an end but also being the strangest thing to ever start.

Man I have not heard this song in forever maybe back in 1998

@willow_shannon3720

Wow...I haven’t listened to this album in forever! I remember playing it constantly back in 98 or 99 (I was 18) and thinking it was the closest thing I’d heard to Nirvana or Bush in the Christian music world. Quite a few good tunes on this album!
