Strangelove
Friendly Fires Lyrics

There'll be times when my crimes Will seem almost unforgivable I give in to sin Because you have to make this life liveable
There will be moments where my actions could be seen as wrong; the result will appear beyond redemption. However, I indulge in my vices because life is hard and I need a way to cope.

But when you think I've had enough from your sea of love I'll take more than another riverfull Yes, and I'll make it all worthwhile I'll make your heart smile
At times, you may think I've had enough of your love; however, I still want more. And when I do, I'll turn it all into something fulfilling and make you happy.

Strangelove Strange highs and strange lows Strangelove That's how my love goes Strangelove Will you give it to me Will you take the pain I will give to you Again and again And will you return it
My love is unusual, and it comes with its ups and downs. Will you accept it as it is? Will you be willing to receive the pain I offer you and return it to me when the time comes?

There'll be days when I'll stray I may appear to be constantly out of reach I give in to sin Because I like to practice what I preach
Sometimes I might wander away and seem like I'm putting distance between us. However, it's just to experiment with new things because I believe in the idea of practicing what I preach.

I'm not trying to say I'll have it all my way I'm always willing to learn when you've got something to teach Oh, and I'll make it all worthwhile I'll make your heart smile
I don't believe that everything should go my way. I'm always open to learning something new from you. And when I do, I'll turn that knowledge into something worthwhile and make you happy.

Pain, will you return it I'll say it again, pain Pain, will you return it I'll say it again, pain Pain, will you return it I'll say it again, pain Pain, will you return it I won't say it again
Will you be willing to return the pain that I give to you? I'll keep asking this over and over, but if I have to ask too many times, I'll stop.

Strangelove Strange highs and strange lows Strangelove That's how my love goes Strangelove Will you give it to me
My love is not ordinary; it has its highs and lows. Will you accept my love with all its peculiarities?

I give in Again and again I give in Will you give it to me I give in I'll say it again I give in
I continuously give in to my vices as life is hard, and sometimes I need an escape. Will you accept this part of me?
