turtle dove

calling all offenders of the bleeding hearts

who's gonna save us from our city tonight?

this one's dedicated to a thing of past

and how i hate to be the one who has to try

and spoil the surprise

but there ain't nowhere to hide

for tonight

merry-go-rounds and turtle doves

our history endlessly foregone

in this city of modern love

if you don't believe me then you're lost

in every paper and on every line

now the truth is there in black and in white

there's no salvation at your brother's side

c

but if love is no longer alive

then love it cannot die

but there ain't nowhere to hide

for tonight

merry-go-rounds and turtle doves

our history endlessly foregone

in this city of modern love

if you don't believe me then you're lost

merry-go-rounds and turtle doves

our history endlessly foregone

in this city of modern love

if you don't believe me then you're lost

this is an emergency

'cause there ain't no pity in the city of a modern love

this is an emergency

'cause there ain't no pity in the city of a modern love

this is an emergency

'cause there ain't no pity in the city of a modern love

this is an emergency

'cause there ain't no pity in the city of a modern love
