When Doves Cry

[Verse 1]

Dig if you will the picture

Of you and I engaged in a kiss

Sweat of your body covers me

Can you, my darling?

Can you picture this?

Dream if you can a courtyard

An ocean of violets in bloom

Animals strike curious poses

They feel the heat

The heat between me and you

[Chorus]

How can you just leave me standing

Alone in a world that's so cold?

Maybe I'm just too demanding

Maybe I'm just like my father: too bold

Maybe you're just like my mother

She's never satisfied

Why do we scream at each other?

This is what it sounds like

When doves cry

[Verse 2]

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]

How can you just leave me standing

Alone in a world that's so cold?

Maybe I'm just too demanding

Maybe I'm just like my father: too bold

Maybe you're just like my mother

She's never satisfied

Why do we scream at each other?

This is what it sounds like

When doves cry
