The Tea Party - The Ubiquitous Mr. Lovegrove lyrics

rate me

I thought you knew it all,

Well you'd seen it ten times before

I thought that you had it down,

With both your feet on the ground

I love slow - slow but deep

Feigned affection - wash over me

Dream on my dear,

And renounce temporal obligation

Dream on my dear,

It's a sleep from which you may not awaken

You build me up then you knock me down,

You play the fool while I play the clown,

You keep time to the beat - of an old slave drum

You raise my hopes,

Then you raise the odds

You tell me that I dream too much

Now I'm serving time - in disillusionment

I don't believe you anymore

I don't believe you

I thought that I knew it all

I'd seen all the signs before

I thought that you were the one

In darkness my heart was won.

You build me up then you knock me down,

You play the fool while I play the clown,

You keep time to the beat - of an old slave drum

You raise my hopes,

Then you raise the odds

You tell me that I dream too much

Now I'm serving time - in a domestic graveyard

I don't believe you anymore

I don't believe you

Never let it be said - i was untrue

I never found a home inside of you

Never let it be said - I was untrue,

I gave you all my time
