Woke Up In A Strange Place Lyrics - Jeff Buckley

The ghost comes to visit 

With my keys in his pocket 

Kisses on my mouth 

With his eyes hanging out of his sockets 

Memories crumbling 

Under steel resistance 

I was torn out like pages 

From the book of existence 

I woke up in a strange place 

Music so loud that I spilled all my beer 

I made a call from my blackened cab 

Some destination was moving on in 

And I remember words that you told me 

Now they come down so hard, so plain 

Fate is gonna find your love 

In a glass of champagne 

Love came calling 

As a counterfeit mistress 

Stealing from the pockets 

Of a sadomasochist 

And she's mouthing for this place 

Like a tongue on crystal myth 

Her cigarette smell 

Like the fear inside my chest 

And I woke up in a strange place 

My mind a blur and some red on my chin 

I made a ride in that blackened cab 

Some destination was moving on in 

Easy now, this car is speeding up 

For my last chance crashing to freedom 

Fate is gonna find your love 

In a glass of champagne 

Sweat pours down 

You're in the back seat sleeping 

And she waits by the window 

From my empty bed weeping 

And the ghost guns the motor 

To the promised land he promised you 

I guess this is the time 

When my best intentions become accidents 

Well, this is my story for the dislocated 

You're gonna love, but it turned to be hated 

Because the lies of the spirit possessed her 

Because the eyes of your lover resist you 

Listen up, you keep your aim steady 

As your temple turns to kiss the pistol 

Fate is gonna find your love 

In a glass of champagne 

{Thank you}
