STRANGE CURRENCIES

by R.E.M.

I don't know why your mean to me
When I call on the telephone
And I don't know what you mean to me
but I want to turn you on
turn you up
figure you out
I wanna take you on

These words "You will be mine"
These words "You will be mine"
all the time

"Fool" might be my middle name
but I'd be foolish not to say
Gonna make whatever it takes
ring you up
call you down
sign your name
and make it rhyme
Take you in and make you mine

These words "You will be mine"
These words "You will be mine"
all the time oh...

I tripped and fell
Did I fall?
What I want to feel
I want,to feel it now

You know with love comes strange currencies
And here is my appeal
I need a chance
a second chance
a third chance
a fourth chance
a word a signal a nod
a little breath
Just to fool myself
to catch myself
to make it real... real

These words "You will be mine"
These words "You will be mine"
all the time... oh
These words "You will be mine"

These words haunt me
hunt me down
catch in my throat
make me pray say
love's combined... oh
