Labour Of Love

(album: Labour Of Love - 1993)

Oh am I fooling you? Do you fall for it all or do you just see right through?
Are you as cool as you believe? Are you playing hard?
Are you waiting just to quietly clock my card?
Are you waiting for a moment to leave?

I don't know, how I bent what you said
To what I believe you meant, I don't know anything at all
I'm standing in the push and shove
And I'm just within the rescue of the labor of your love
I can't do anything but fall, fall, fall, fall, fall

Why do I feel like I can never find you?
Why do I feel like I'm the only survivor?
Why am I thinking of you and me and the labor of love?

One chance, one shot that's all anybody ever got
Newborn still warm, naked in the rush hour
Dancing in my gutter and if you want to find me
Call me, I'll be far from the cars and guitars and everybody

Why do I feel like I can never find you?
Why do I feel like I'm the only survivor?
Why am I thinking of you and me and the labor of love?

And I never knew before but I feel like a child in a cold, cold war
So strong, so tough, sitting in suburbia, waiting for the wind up
And I don't want to dance
I just want to jump from the prison of circumstance

Why am I thinking of you and me and the labor of love?
Why do I feel like I can never find you?
Why do I feel like I'm the only survivor?
Why am I thinking of you and me and the labor of love?
