the things lovers should do

standing in the half light

wondering if you can

there stands the priest of sinners

consolation in his hands

though he prays he won't need it

he keeps it by his side

waiting for the face up and the answer in her eyes

all while the music's playing a backdrop serenade

there's only one point of view

to be doing the things

things that lovers should do

disco-queens in dancestep

moving face to face

all tangled up in neon don't think it's some disgrace

the blue western denim

the east coats razor edge

the european fashion

the leathers and re-threads

all while the music's playing a backdrop serenade

there's only one point of view

to be doing the things

things that lovers should do
