Shades (from "Here It Comes Again" single)

You gave me a present
The paper was blue and green
I unwrapped it with pleasure
These are the best shades I've ever seen
You can be my girlfriend
Forever and a day
I never thought I was worth much
Or that anyone would treat me this way

I'm not
The kind of guy
Who dresses like a king
And a really fine pair of shades
Means everything
And the light that blinds my eyes
Shines from you
It makes me warm in the night
It makes me thrill with delight
Our love is pain
Our love is pure

I love these shades
I could have had a problem
I might have never followed through
The other guys are in trouble
They wouldn't listen to a girl like you
These shades say something
I'll bet they cost a lot
I hope I don't break 'em
I hope we don't break up

I'm not
The kind of guy
Who dresses like a king
So a really fine pair of shades
Means everything
And the light that blinds my eyes
Shines from you
It makes me warm in the night
It makes me thrill with delight
Our love is pain
Our love is pure

It makes me warm in the night
It makes me thrill with delight
You are my flag
No, no life's not a prayer
I love these shades
I love these shades
I love these shades
