Lyrics

[00:05.66] Produced by: Prince
[00:36.01] <Verse 1>
[00:36.32] Dig if you will the picture
[00:39.32] Of you and I engaged in a kiss
[00:43.27] The sweat of your body covers me
[00:47.25] Can you, my darling?
[00:49.12] Can you picture this?
[00:51.25] <Verse 2>
[00:51.54] Dream if you can a courtyard
[00:54.64] An ocean of violets in bloom
[00:58.41] Animals strike curious poses
[01:02.61] They feel the heat
[01:04.07] The heat between me and you
[01:06.38] <Chorus>
[01:06.70] How can you just leave me standing
[01:09.69] Alone in a world that's so cold?
[01:13.56] Maybe I'm just too demanding
[01:17.36] Maybe I'm just like my father: too bold
[01:21.16] Maybe you're just like my mother
[01:24.91] She's never satisfied
[01:28.70] Why do we scream at each other?
[01:32.53] This is what it sounds like
[01:34.97] When doves cry
[01:50.46] <Verse 3>
[01:51.67] Touch if you will my stomach
[01:55.24] Feel how it trembles inside
[01:59.08] You've got the butterflies all tied up
[02:02.83] Don't make me chase you
[02:04.84] Even doves have pride
[02:07.67] <Chorus>
[02:08.16] How can you just leave me standing
[02:10.34] Alone in a world that's so cold?
[02:14.19] Maybe I'm just too demanding
[02:17.95] Maybe I'm just like my father: too bold
[02:21.72] Maybe you're just like my mother
[02:25.48] She's never satisfied
[02:29.26] Why do we scream at each other?
[02:33.09] This is what it sounds like
[02:35.41] When doves cry
[02:52.36] How can you just leave me standing
[02:55.78] Alone in a world that's so cold?
[02:59.62] Maybe I'm just too demanding
[03:03.41] Maybe I'm just like my father: too bold
[03:07.16] Maybe you're just like my mother
[03:10.98] She's never satisfied
[03:14.77] Why do we scream at each other?
[03:18.55] This is what it sounds like
[03:20.83] When doves cry
[03:24.61] When doves cry (when doves cry)
[03:31.07] When doves cry (when doves cry)
[03:59.69] <Instrumental Interlude>
[04:25.36] When doves cry (screaming)
[05:00.36] <Outro>
[05:27.71] When doves cry, don't cry
[05:37.11] Darling, don't cry
[05:42.06] Don't cry, don't cry, don't, don't cry
[05:47.44]
