What A Curious Notion Lyrics
Here they come now looking for laughter
You can see in their eyes they don't know what they're after
But here he comes now
Our man of the hour
See what he does for his companion
She always had a place in my heart
Beautiful minds shared for the moment
Knowing the signs
Just when to hold her
When we arrive she's looking bashful
Will she believe what I have told her
That she always had a place in my heart
What do you say
We keep the whole thing in motion
'Cause looking around
Well I see nothing but oceans ...
... of what we are looking for
We're looking for idols
And don't we know well
That they're not going to guide us
What was I thinking
What a curious notion
She never gave nothing
But love and devotion
Now she's always got a place in my heart
You can see in their eyes they don't know what they're after
But here he comes now
Our man of the hour
See what he does for his companion
Knowing the signs
Just when to hold her
When we arrive she's looking bashful
Will she believe what I have told her
We keep the whole thing in motion
'Cause looking around
Well I see nothing but oceans ...
... of what we are looking for
We're looking for idols
And don't we know well
That they're not going to guide us
What a curious notion
She never gave nothing
But love and devotion
