lyrics

The temperature was wrong
The music dull and dissonant
And any candles there blew out
The starlight hardly on
And any romance gone astray
But upon glancing you is found

The sum it need not come
To what I thought it was to be
The journey lead to
Different lands
But everything is far
More perfect than I could foresee
And love has interrupted plans

And all the wreckage now revered
Is so strangely right
And all we'd doubted now held dear
Is oh so strangely right

And all we'd deemed as not for us is oh so strangely right
And all the jagged and the rough
Is oh so strangely right
And all we are may seem absurd and yet so strangely right
And all that left us so perturbed
Is oh so strangely right
