Lover

My lover lying down
Arms reached out across the ground
He sleeps by stormy seas
With his eyes cast up he searches
The paradise above
Golden clouds, a lie in the dove
My love, he waits for me
Waits for me to find
Words that I can’t hide
Love has a funny way
Of spinning you round
The world plays some wicked games
And they’re bringing us down
My lover lying down
My lover lying down
My lover lying
My lover sitting still
Knows my heart, he always will
Stays with me though I stray
Wants me to deny these things I can’t describe
Love has a funny way (love has a funny way)
Of spinning you round (spinning you round, spinning you)
The world plays some wicked games (wicked games, oh)
And they’re bringing us down
My lover lying down
My lover lying down
My lover lying
My lover standing by
Pretending not to see me cry
He tells me he won’t stay
Unless I learn to change my ways
But I won’t dim this light
The color turned his black and white
He wants me to be
Someone I can’t believe
Love has a funny way (love has a funny way)
Of spinning you round (turning you round, oh)
The world plays some wicked games (wicked games, wicked games)
And they’re bringing us down
My lover lying down
Love has a funny way
My lover lying down
Of spinning you round
My lover lying
The world plays some wicked games
My lover lying down
They’re bringing us down
My lover lying down
