Love Is Strange, 1971

I don't know your name,
And if you came,
I wouldn't be with you,
You are the one
I never saw before,
And so I know that you will be forevermore.

I can't stand the pain,
It seems most strange--
About the life that I live,
And now I have you--
Where I want you now,
But you can't see who I am,
Can you?

You know it can't be seen
Of what life is,
Of what day is,
And night can be,
So what is life,
And what is free?

I love you more than a world,
It is a heaven up above,
And if I saw you,
It would be right now,
So I'll just have to make out somehow,
Without your name.
