My Favourite Stranger
Martin Gore, Richard Butler
Some perfect stranger
Sneaks on tiptoes
Steals my shadow
And goes where I go
My favorite stranger
Stands in my mirror
Puts words in my mouth
All broke and bitter
Some perfect stranger
My imitation
Drops my name in
My conversations
Some perfect stranger
Speaks when I speak
Walks in my footsteps
And talks in my sleep
My favorite stranger
Stands where I stand
Leaves crime in my wake
And blood on my hands
(And blood on my hands)
Some perfect stranger
Un perfetto sconosciuto
Sneaks on tiptoes
Si intrufola in punta di piedi
Steals my shadow
Ruba la mia ombra
And goes where I go
E va dove vado io
My favorite stranger
Il mio sconosciuto preferito
Stands in my mirror
Si riflette nel mio specchio
Puts words in my mouth
Mette parole nella mia bocca
All broke and bitter
Tutte rotte e amare
Some perfect stranger
Un perfetto sconosciuto
My imitation
La mia imitazione
Drops my name in
Lascia cadere il mio nome in
My conversations
Le mie conversazioni
Some perfect stranger
Un perfetto sconosciuto
Speaks when I speak
Parla quando parlo
Walks in my footsteps
Cammina sulle mie orme
And talks in my sleep
E parla nel mio sonno
My favorite stranger
Il mio sconosciuto preferito
Stands where I stand
Si ferma dove mi fermo io
Leaves crime in my wake
Lascia crimini nel mio risveglio
And blood on my hands
E sangue sulle mie mani
(And blood on my hands)
(E sangue sulle mie mani)
Some perfect stranger
Algum estranho perfeito
Sneaks on tiptoes
Anda na ponta dos pés
Steals my shadow
Rouba minha sombra
And goes where I go
E vai onde eu vou
My favorite stranger
Meu estranho favorito
Stands in my mirror
Fica no meu espelho
Puts words in my mouth
Coloca palavras na minha boca
All broke and bitter
Tudo quebrado e amargo
Some perfect stranger
Algum estranho perfeito
My imitation
Minha imitação
Drops my name in
Deixa meu nome em
My conversations
Minhas conversas
Some perfect stranger
Algum estranho perfeito
Speaks when I speak
Fala quando eu falo
Walks in my footsteps
Anda nas minhas pegadas
And talks in my sleep
E fala durante meu sono
My favorite stranger
Meu estranho favorito
Stands where I stand
Fica onde eu fico
Leaves crime in my wake
Deixa crime no meu rastro
And blood on my hands
E sangue nas minhas mãos
(And blood on my hands)
(E sangue nas minhas mãos)
Some perfect stranger
Algún extraño perfecto
Sneaks on tiptoes
Se desliza de puntillas
Steals my shadow
Roba mi sombra
And goes where I go
Y va donde voy yo
My favorite stranger
Mi extraño favorito
Stands in my mirror
Se para frente al espejo
Puts words in my mouth
Pone palabras en mi boca
All broke and bitter
Todas rotas y amargas
Some perfect stranger
Algún extraño perfecto
My imitation
Mi imitación
Drops my name in
Deja caer mi nombre en
My conversations
Mis conversaciones
Some perfect stranger
Algún extraño perfecto
Speaks when I speak
Habla cuando hablo yo
Walks in my footsteps
Camina en mis pasos
And talks in my sleep
Y habla en mi sueño
My favorite stranger
Mi extraño favorito
Stands where I stand
Se para donde estoy yo
Leaves crime in my wake
Deja crimen a mi paso
And blood on my hands
Y sangre en mis manos
(And blood on my hands)
(Y sangre en mis manos)
Some perfect stranger
Un parfait inconnu
Sneaks on tiptoes
Se faufile sur la pointe des pieds
Steals my shadow
Vole mon ombre
And goes where I go
Et va où je vais
My favorite stranger
Mon étranger préféré
Stands in my mirror
Se tient dans mon miroir
Puts words in my mouth
Met des mots dans ma bouche
All broke and bitter
Tout cassé et amer
Some perfect stranger
Un parfait inconnu
My imitation
Mon imitation
Drops my name in
Lâche mon nom dans
My conversations
Mes conversations
Some perfect stranger
Un parfait inconnu
Speaks when I speak
Parle quand je parle
Walks in my footsteps
Marche dans mes pas
And talks in my sleep
Et parle dans mon sommeil
My favorite stranger
Mon étranger préféré
Stands where I stand
Se tient là où je me tiens
Leaves crime in my wake
Laisse le crime dans mon sillage
And blood on my hands
Et du sang sur mes mains
(And blood on my hands)
(Et du sang sur mes mains)
Some perfect stranger
Ein perfekter Fremder
Sneaks on tiptoes
Schleicht auf Zehenspitzen
Steals my shadow
Stiehlt meinen Schatten
And goes where I go
Und geht, wohin ich gehe
My favorite stranger
Mein Lieblingsfremder
Stands in my mirror
Steht in meinem Spiegel
Puts words in my mouth
Legt Worte in meinen Mund
All broke and bitter
Alles kaputt und bitter
Some perfect stranger
Ein perfekter Fremder
My imitation
Meine Nachahmung
Drops my name in
Lässt meinen Namen fallen in
My conversations
Meinen Gesprächen
Some perfect stranger
Ein perfekter Fremder
Speaks when I speak
Spricht, wenn ich spreche
Walks in my footsteps
Geht in meinen Fußstapfen
And talks in my sleep
Und spricht in meinem Schlaf
My favorite stranger
Mein Lieblingsfremder
Stands where I stand
Steht, wo ich stehe
Leaves crime in my wake
Hinterlässt Verbrechen in meinem Kielwasser
And blood on my hands
Und Blut an meinen Händen
(And blood on my hands)
(Und Blut an meinen Händen)
