Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, it's a strange day
In such a lonely way
I saw some children dance
I watched my life in a trance
And the people around me
Seemed so glad to be here
Will my time pass so slowly
On the day that I fear?
[Verse 2]
And noise that surrounds me
Grows so loud in my head
From a promise I knew once
To the lies that I said
Oh, it's a strange day
In such a lonely way
Some people look down on me
I hope they like what they see
[Verse 3]
Strange day
Such a strange day
Such a strange day
Written by: Bernard Sumner, Gillian Gilbert, Peter Hook, Stephen Morris
