A Lover Sings

<br>You and I are victims of a love<br><br>That lost a lot in the translation<br><br>When I think of all the time that I spent<br><br>Sitting on the edge of your bed in anticipation<br><br>Of you giving in and us living in sin<br><br><br><br>A hot day, the smell of hairspray<br><br>And the sound of a shower running softly<br><br>Its things like this that remind me of how I felt<br><br>The first time you came back for coffee<br><br>The way you took it amazed me<br><br><br><br>Walking in the park, kissing in the dark<br><br>And my head against your pillow<br><br>Late at night a lover sings<br><br>Adam and eve are finding out all about love<br><br>I say adam and eve are finding out all about love<br><br><br><br>There is no real substitute<br><br>For a ball struck squarely and firmly<br><br>And youre the kind of girl who wants to<br><br>Open up the bottle of pop<br><br>Too early in the journey<br><br>Our love went flat just like that<br><br><br><br>It doesnt matter the colour of the car<br><br>But what goes on beneath the bonnet<br><br>Is there a flag that flies above your heart<br><br>And is my name writ there upon it<br><br>Wedding cake and toothache<br><br>Equals love and pain<br><br><br><br>Walking in the park, kissing on the carpet<br><br>And your tights around your ankles<br><br>Late at night a lover thinks of these things<br><br>Adam and eve are finding out all about love<br><br>I say adam and eve are finding out all about love<br><br>Adam and eve are finding out all about<br><br>Adam and eve are finding out all about love<br><br>Teresa and steve are finding out all about love
