"This Strange Love" by Bobby Long. Lyrics

"This Strange Love" by Bobby Long. I love this song. It touches me deeply. I have been trying to decipher the lyrics that I am uncertain of. On March 16th, 2010 I talked with Bobby Long backstage after this Poor Davids Pub show, and asked him the "line" I was unsure of. I forgot to have him clarify "Timeless Love" for me. He may be saying "timeless dove"/ or "time they start." Unsure.... take that line in stride. : )
Lyrics based on the version from Bobby Long's "Live at Arlene's Grovery" CD
This song is written by Bobby Long and owned by Bobby Long.

This Strange Love

This strange love won't wait
Won't you write it out for me
like it wasn't written up above
So I'm callin' on angels arms

Strangers from a far
Pick and they hunt me
like it's a fault laid ridden on my breast

Cus My lazy mind needs his bed
So I'm thinkin' of bein done

mmmmmmm

So if you
think you might need to come
cryin' out
ohh
Outdated Frustrated uh-oh
A Timeless love callin' on angles arms
ohoohhh
oooohh
oh yea a a yea

So Thinkin' men awake in their heads
Pay nothin' for free
It's their thoughts which pay my debts
So Methonal mind full of ugly heads (this line confirmed to me By Bobby Long Himself)
with nothing left to spare
cryin' out to the panicked soaked sky
Thinkin' of being done

oooh
oooohh
oh aayy yea

So if you
think you might need to come,
cryin' out
ooo
Outdated. Frustrated uh -oh
Timeless Love
hey yea yea

But see her fall from the lonely
The children askin' her to
see the sun

hey ay ay
ooohh oh oh

So if you think you might need to come
cryin' out
oooh oh oh
outdated. frustrated uh-oh
Timeless love

With drunk on kisses
busted wishes of old
timeless love
callin on angels arms
callin on angels arms
callin' on angels arms
mmmmmmmmm
