And is it really so strange? Oh, is it really so strange? Oh, is it really so, really so strange? I say NO, you say YES (and you will change your mind) I left the South I travelled North I got confused - I killed a horse I can't help the way I feel Oh yes, you can punch me And you can butt me And you can break my spine But you won't change the way I feel 'Cause I love you Oh... And is it really so strange? Oh, is it really so strange? Oh, is it really so, really so strange? I say NO, you say YES (But you will change your mind) I left the North again I travelled South again And I got confused - I killed a nun I CAN'T HELP THE WAY I FEEL I CAN'T HELP THE WAY I FEEL I CAN'T HELP THE WAY I FEEL (I lost my bag in Newport Pagnell) Why is the last mile the hardest mile? My throat was dry, with the sun in my eyes And I realised, I realised I could never I could never, never, never, go back home again </poem> {{CommonSongSections | Artist = The Smiths | Song = {{#replace:{{#replace:{{PAGENAME}}| (single)|}}| (song)|}}}}
