A Lover Spurned - Marc Almond & Gene Pitney

Oh, we all just hide inside Don't you fight your quiet wars alone Gentle calm in my arms Silent black rain Oh, I love it when you smile When you dance inside of me It's a tiny win for me It's not hard to see When you're needing me Oh baby, need a lover And a friend the next day Hey baby, need a lover And a friend the next day Oh baby, need a lover And a friend the next day We're all alone in our thoughts Like gentle shores with jagged rocks A quiet storm is building up And the darkness inside Oh, I love it when you smile When you dance inside of me It's a tiny win for me It's not hard to see When you're needing me Hey, hey, I need a lover And a friend the next day Oh, oh, need a lover And a friend the next day Oh baby, need a lover And a friend the next day Oh baby, need a lover Will we always be ourselves? Will you always be my love? Will we always be ourselves? Will you always be my love?

You and I are victims of a love That lost a lot in the translation When I think of all the time that I spent Sitting on the edge of your bed in anticipation Of you giving in and us living in sin A hot day, the smell of hairspray And the sound of a shower running softly It's things like this that remind me of how I felt The first time you came back for coffee The way you took it amazed me Walking in the park, kissing in the dark And my head against your pillow Late at night a lover sings Adam and eve are finding out all about love I say adam and eve are finding out all about love There is no real substitute For a ball struck squarely and firmly And you're the kind of girl who wants to Open up the bottle of pop Too early in the journey Our love went flat just like that It doesn't matter the colour of the car But what goes on beneath the bonnet Is there a flag that flies above your heart And is my name writ there upon it Wedding cake and toothache Equals love and pain Walking in the park, kissing on the carpet And your tights around your ankles Late at night a lover thinks of these things Adam and eve are finding out all about love I say adam and eve are finding out all about love Adam and eve are finding out all about Adam and eve are finding out all about love Teresa and steve are finding out all about love
