Lyrics

Some call her "Strange lady from the mountains" Well, others say she's not really real Like a candle burns bright, wants to burn faster Well, maybe then, at least, she really feels Burning like a candle in the middle She's lonely, lost, she's disconnected She finds no comfort in her surroundings Beautiful, insecure, she has nothing She moves from situation to situation like a ghost Then she sees him, candle burning Strange, she runs with the one she can't keep up with Ooh, it's so strange, he slows down, he's so desperate to stop her Meet her in the middle, they both run from the one who hunts them They drop to the forest floor, frozen They drop to the forest floor, frozen He loves her, but he needs his life alone as well But does he know the road or the reasons why? If he leaves her, he'll be losing the chance to stay alive But the candle burns bright, then the candle dies Burning from the middle, just like a candle Strange, she runs with the one she can't keep up with Oh, it's so strange, he slows down, he's so desperate to stop her And they meet in the middle, they both run from the one who hunts them They drop to the forest floor, frozen They drop to the forest floor, frozen Strange, she's laid on the floor in silent pain Strange, he sat on a chair for months just staring (Strange) she knows too much to walk away (Strange) she couldn't do it anyway Strange, she's laid on the floor in silent pain Strange, he sat on a chair for months just staring (Strange) she knows too much to walk away (Strange) she couldn't do it anyway He slows down He slows down He slows down She couldn't do it She couldn't do it
