0:00Bonnie Tyler Loving You's A Dirty Job
0:49When the sky is falling and you're looking round for somewhere to hide
0:55Did you ever call out to someone did you ever call out to me
1:00I've never been gone I've been right here by your side
1:07There ain't nothin' but clouds there ain't nothin' but clouds in your eyes
1:13Why don't you believe it when you finally found the truth
1:18You've been drinking poison water from the fountain of youth
1:25Why don't you stop tearing up everyone you need the most
1:30You're so busy trying to get even you never even try to get close
1:37I can't explain it away it doesn't make any sense
1:40To know what it's like I guess you gotta go through it
1:44I guess you gotta go through it I guess you gotta go through it
1:47It doesn't matter baby
1:49Loving you's a dirty job
1:55But somebody's gotta do it
1:59There were times when we'd never fake it
2:02There were times when we'd always make it
2:04There were times when we'd take it to the limit
2:07And we'd never never ever leave each other alone
2:11We were flesh and blood and bone
2:14There were times we had it all
2:17There were times we had it all
2:20There were times when we took our chances
2:22There were times when we were damn good dancers
2:25There were times when we heard all the answers
2:28In the beating of the drummer and the riches of the rock and the roll
2:32I can see right through your soul
2:35There were times we had it all
2:38There were times we had it all
2:50If your fears could only be forgotten we could pull all of the barriers down
2:58Would you follow your dreams' desire
3:01Would you follow your secret dreams and forbidden fire
3:05Let's just peel out of this town
3:10It's been nothing but dreams
3:11It's been nothing but dreams until now
3:15You're never gonna see it
3:18You got your head stuck in the sand
3:21It's the land of the free and easy Street
3:24It's the home of the damned
3:27You're never gonna see it
3:29You better open up your eyes
3:32You're the only one who's left
3:35Who's gonna believe all your lies
3:40I can't explain it away it doesn't make any sense
3:43To know what it's like I guess you gotta go through it
3:47I guess you gotta go through it I guess you gotta go through it
3:50It doesn't matter baby
3:52Loving you's a dirty job
3:58But somebody's gotta do it
4:01There were times when our bodies glistened
4:04There were times that we can't stop missing
4:07There were times that we'd lay in bed and listen
4:10To the pounding pounding chorus of our desperate hearts
4:14Nothing could have torn us apart
4:17There were times we had it all
4:20There were times we had it all
4:22There were times when we fought like tigers
4:25There were times we were damn good liars
4:28There were times we extinguished every fire
4:30That was burning burning burning up each other alive
4:35From the heavens on down to the dives
4:37There were times we lost it all
4:40There were times we lost it all
4:52There were times when we fought like tigers
4:54There were times we were damn good liars
5:19There were times when our bodies glistened
5:21There were times that we can't stop missing
5:24There were times that we'd lay in bed and listen
5:27To the pounding pounding chorus of our desperate hearts
5:32Nothing could have torn us apart
5:34There were times we had it all
5:38There were times we had it all
5:58It's a dirty job loving you baby
6:04Somebody's gotta do it
6:09It's a dirty job loving you baby
6:17Somebody's gotta do it
6:21It's a dirty job loving you baby
6:29Somebody's gotta do it
