Once I had a strange love A mad sort of insane love A love so fast and fierce I thought I'd die
Yes, once I had a strange love A pure but very pained love A love that burned like fire through a field
Oh, once I had a strange love A childlike but deranged love A love that if were bottled it would kill
See, once I had a strange love A secret and untamed love A love that took no prisoners at all
And once I had a strange love A psychic unexplained love A love that challenged scientific facts
And then there was that strange love That very badly trained love A love that needed discipline and facts
And once I had a strange love The kind of love that's seen in magazines
And once I had a strange love A beautiful but vain love A love I think that's better left in dreams
And once I had a strange love We'd go on holy battles in the nights
And then there was that strange love That vulgar and profane love The kind of love that we don't talk about
Yes, once I had a strange love Who'd woven stories like Scheherazade
And once I had a strange love We ran so fast we almost spilled our guts
You see, I've had some strange love Some good, some bad, some plain love Some so-so love, so what?
But just let me proclaim, love That, out of all the strange love You're the strangest love I've ever known
Strangest love I've ever known...
