Lyrics

[00:19.37] Dig if you will the picture
[00:23.12] of you and I engaged in a kiss
[00:27.80] The sweat of your body covers me
[00:33.30] Come on darling
[00:35.52] Can you picture this?
[00:37.85] Dream if you can a courtyard
[00:42.13] An ocean of violets in bloom
[00:46.23] Animals strike curious poses
[00:52.14] They feel the heat
[00:54.00] The heat between me and you
[00:56.39] How can you just leave me standing?
[01:01.34] Alone in a world that's so cold?
[01:05.15] Maybe I'm just too demanding
[01:09.50] Maybe I'm just like my father too bold
[01:15.59] Maybe you're just like my mother
[01:19.43] She's never satisfied
[01:24.34] Why do we scream at each other
[01:28.95] This is what it sounds like
[01:32.42] When doves cry
[01:43.03] Touch if you will my stomach
[01:48.04] Feel how it trembles inside
[01:53.50] You've got the butterflies all tied up
[01:57.36] Don't make me chase you
[01:59.90] Even doves have pride
[02:02.39] How can you just leave me standing?
[02:06.21] Alone in a world so cold?
[02:11.14] Maybe I'm just too demanding
[02:15.98] Maybe I'm just like my father too bold
[02:21.00] Maybe I'm just like my mother
[02:25.30] She's never satisfied
[02:30.23] Why do we scream at each other
[02:34.86] This is what it sounds like
[02:37.30] When doves cry
[03:02.42] Dream if you can a courtyard
[03:08.10] An ocean of violets in bloom
[03:13.13] Animals strike curious poses
[03:17.45] They feel the heat
[03:19.31] The heat between me and you
[03:21.26] How can you just leave me standing?
[03:26.80] Alone in a world that's so cold? (a world that's so cold)
[03:31.19] Maybe I'm just too demanding
[03:35.36] Maybe I'm just like my father too bold
[03:40.39] Maybe I'm just like my mother (maybe you're just like my mother)
[03:45.27] She's never satisfied (she's never, never satisfied)
[03:49.83] Why do we scream at each other (why do we scream at each other)
[03:55.20] This is what it sounds like
[03:57.10] When doves cry
[04:09.00] Why must we scream at each other
[04:13.98] The doves are crying
