Lyrics
0:16You said you couldn't find anyone
0:20To love you
0:24I said there's more to life than a broken heart
0:27Did it console you
0:31I've seen in your eyes
0:34I've read it in books
0:36Who wants love
0:36Without the looks
0:40You know the words
0:41Please do say it from your knees
0:47Show some respect
0:49Hey baby genuflect
0:55Once I like crying
0:56Twice I like laughter
0:58Come on tell me what I'm after
1:06I said you've gotta stop chasing rainbows
1:11You said I'm just staying up
1:16And anyway
1:17I like it when the rain goes
1:21I've seen in your eyes
1:23I've read it in books
1:25Who want's love
1:27Without the looks
1:45Once I like crying
1:47Twice I like laughter
1:48Come on tell me what I'm after
1:56There's not that much to us
1:58I hide the little with a lot
2:04You still expect a lovely fuss
2:05After showing all you've got
2:11I've seen in your eyes
2:14I've read it in books
2:15Who wants love
2:17Without the looks
2:19That's all
You said you couldn't find anyone To love you I said there's more to life than a broken heart Did it console you I've seen in your eyes I've read it in books Who wants love Without the looks You know the words Please do say it from your knees Show some respect Hey baby genuflect Once I like crying Twice I like laughter Come on tell me what I'm after I said you've gotta stop chasing rainbows You said I'm just staying up And anyway I like it when the rain goes I've seen in your eyes I've read it in books Who want's love Without the looks Once I like crying Twice I like laughter Come on tell me what I'm after There's not that much to us I hide the little with a lot You still expect a lovely fuss After showing all you've got I've seen in your eyes I've read it in books Who wants love Without the looks That's all
