Graham Parker - Passion is No Ordinary Word lyrics

rate me

It worked much better in a fantasy

Imagination's one thing that comes easy to me

Cause this is nothing else if not unreal

When I pretend to touch you, you pretend to feel

CHORUS:

Passion is no ordinary word

Passion is no ordinary word

Passion is no ordinary word,

Ain't manufactured or just another sound

That you hear at night at night

Ain't got no idols for the screen today

Although they make a lot of noises they got nothing to say

I try to look amazed but it's an act

The movie might be new but it's the same soundtrack

(Chorus)

Say how it feels real useless ain't it

Wait until it bites right down inside you

The world is easy when you're just playing around with it

Everything's a thrill and every girl's a kill

And then it gets unreal and then you don't feel anything

You don't feel anything

You don't feel anything

(solo)

An object of desire you don't desire to be

I bet the shop window dummies give in just as easily

I try to stop but have to make you drop down to the floor

Moaning in the darkness as we fake some more

(Chorus x 2)

Just another sound that you hear at night

Ain't just another sound
