Lyrics
0:34Dig if you will the picture
0:37Of you and I engaged in a kiss
0:41The sweat of your body covers me
0:45Can you my darling
0:47Can you picture this
0:49Dream if you can a courtyard
0:52An ocean of violets in bloom
0:56Animals strike curious poses
1:00They feel the heat
1:02The heat between me and you
1:04How can you just leave me standing
1:08Alone in a world that's so cold so cold
1:12Maybe I'm just too demanding
1:14Maybe I'm just like my father too bold
1:19Maybe you're just like my mother
1:22She's never satisfied she's never satisfied
1:27Why do we scream at each other
1:30This is what it sounds like
1:33When doves cry
1:50Touch if you will my stomach
1:53Feel how it trembles inside
1:57You've got the butterflies all tied up
2:01Don't make me chase you
2:03Even doves have pride
2:06How can you just leave me standing
2:07Alone in a world so cold world so cold
2:12Maybe I'm just too demanding
2:16Maybe I'm just like my father too bold
2:20Maybe you're just like my mother
2:23She's never satisfied she's never satisfied
2:27Why do we scream at each other
2:31This is what it sounds like
2:33When doves cry
2:50How can you just leave me standing
2:53Alone in a world that's so cold a world that's so cold
2:58Maybe I'm just too demanding maybe maybe I'm like my father
3:02Maybe I'm just like my father too bold ya know he's too bold
3:06Maybe you're just like my mother maybe you're just like my mother
3:10She's never satisfied she's never never satisfied
3:12Why do we scream at each other why do we scream why
3:16This is what it sounds like
3:18When doves cry
3:23When doves cry doves cry doves cry
3:29When doves cry doves cry doves cry
3:40Don't cry don't cry
Dig if you will the picture Of you and I engaged in a kiss The sweat of your body covers me Can you my darling Can you picture this Dream if you can a courtyard An ocean of violets in bloom Animals strike curious poses They feel the heat The heat between me and you How can you just leave me standing Alone in a world that's so cold so cold Maybe I'm just too demanding Maybe I'm just like my father too bold Maybe you're just like my mother She's never satisfied she's never satisfied Why do we scream at each other This is what it sounds like When doves cry Touch if you will my stomach Feel how it trembles inside You've got the butterflies all tied up Don't make me chase you Even doves have pride How can you just leave me standing Alone in a world so cold world so cold Maybe I'm just too demanding Maybe I'm just like my father too bold Maybe you're just like my mother She's never satisfied she's never satisfied Why do we scream at each other This is what it sounds like When doves cry How can you just leave me standing Alone in a world that's so cold a world that's so cold Maybe I'm just too demanding maybe maybe I'm like my father Maybe I'm just like my father too bold ya know he's too bold Maybe you're just like my mother maybe you're just like my mother She's never satisfied she's never never satisfied Why do we scream at each other why do we scream why This is what it sounds like When doves cry When doves cry doves cry doves cry When doves cry doves cry doves cry Don't cry don't cry
