When Doves Cry (Radio Edit)

[Verse 1]

Dig, if you will, the picture

Of you and I engaged in a kiss

The sweat of your body covers me

Can you, my darlin'?

Can you picture this?

[Verse 2]

Dream, if you can, a courtyard (Oh-oh-oh)

An ocean of violets in bloom

Animals strike curious poses

They feel the heat

The heat between me and you

[Chorus 1]

How can you just leave me standin' (Standin')

Alone in a world that's so cold? (So cold)

Maybe I'm just too demandin' (Demandin')

Maybe I'm just like my father: too bold

Maybe you're just like my mother (Like my mother)

She's never satisfied (She's nеver satisfied)

Why do we scrеam at each other?

This is what it sounds like

When doves cry

[Verse 3]

Touch, if you will, my stomach

Feel how it trembles inside

You've got the butterflies all tied up

Don't make me chase you

Even doves have pride

[Chorus 2]

How can you just leave me standin' (Standin')

Alone in a world that's so cold? (So cold)

Maybe I'm just too demandin' (Demandin')

Maybe I'm just like my father: too bold

Maybe you're just like my mother (Like my mother)

She's never satisfied (She's never satisfied)

Why do we scream at each other?

This is what it sounds like

When doves cry

[Bridge]

Hoo

Hoo

Hoo

Yah-yah, hoo-yah

Hoo

Hoo

Hoo

Even doves have pride

[Chorus 3]

How can you just leave me standin'

Alone in a world that's so cold? (World that's so cold)

Maybe I'm just too demandin' (Demandin', baby)

Maybe I'm just like my father: too bold (Oh, ma-ma-ma, ooh-no-ooh-oh-ooh-oh, oh-oh)

Maybe you're just like my mother (Maybe you're just like my mother)

She's never satisfied (She's never, never satisfied)

Why do we scream at each other? (Why?)

This is what it sounds like

When doves cry

[Outro]

Hoo

Yah-yah, hoo-yah

Yah-yah, hoo-yah
