THE WATERBOYS - WE WILL NOT BE LOVERS lyrics

rate me

You just stepped into the maintrack

climbed down off the fence

Words are your weapon

lies are your defence

I know what you want

and I see what you see

You're looking for somebody

but he isn't me

Find yourself another

because we will not be lovers

How your eyes are like tortures

and your presence is bliss

I never knew time

could speed and zip like this

The touch of your flesh

is tough to resist

Planets collide, collide

at the smack of your kiss

But you can kiss your brother

because we will not be lovers

Now you're pulling down curtains

You've been sparking old flames

You've been causing disturbance

crying for shame

You've been Knocking on doors

You've been abusing my name

You've been casting up doubt

you've been throwing your blame

But you can throw it at your mother

we will not be lovers

Now the world's full of trouble

everybody's scared

The landlords are frowning

cupboards are bare

People are scrambling

like dogs for a share

It's cruel and its hard

but it nothing compared to

what we do to each other

to each other

We will not be lovers!

we will not be lovers, no

We will not be lovers, no
