    This girl has got a smile
    that can make me cry
    this girl just burns with love
    she's burning burning deep inside
    night time night time
    sets my house on fire
    i'll turn into the melting man
    i'll lose my life
    to feel i feel desire
    oh i should feel
    like a polar bear...
    it's impossible
    she flies outside this cage
    singing girlmad words
    i keep her dark thoughts deep inside
    as black as stone
    and mad as birds
    wild wild wild
    and never turn away
    sends me all her love
    she sends me everything
    she sends me everywhere
    oh i could be
    a polar bear...
    but it's impossible
    i try to talk
    the sky goes red
    i forget
    so fill in my head
    with some of this
    some of that
    some of every word she says
    oh i should be
    a polar bear...
    but it's impossible

    This is one of the most beautiful songs by The Cure.
    Flangy guitars & nice basswork, Elated, happy and yet bittersweet. One of the few Cure songs i can listen to on a nice summer day. :)

    A stranger has come
    To share my room in the house not right in the head,
    A girl mad as birds

    Bolting the night of the door with her arm her plume.
    Strait in the mazed bed
    She deludes the heaven-proof house with entering clouds

    Yet she deludes with walking the nightmarish room,
    At large as the dead,
    Or rides the imagined oceans of the male wards.

    She has come possessed
    Who admits the delusive light through the bouncing wall,
    Possessed by the skies

    She sleeps in the narrow trough yet she walks the dust
    Yet raves at her will
    On the madhouse boards worn thin by my walking tears.

    And taken by light in her arms at long and dear last
    I may without fail
    Suffer the first vision that set fire to the stars.

      Yeah they are. I love how you can watch a bunch of their videos and Lol Tolhurt at one point is their drummer, another point keyboardist, another point horn player. Robert started out as just the guitar player in their earlier incarnation. He never planned on singing, then the singer left, so he took over. Robert's under-rated as a guitar player too. Just finished listening to "The Blood", a pretty different feel from any of their other songs.
