Tony Coffey - What Lovers Do Lyrics



Tony Coffey - What Lovers Do Lyrics




A thousand shadows waiting patiently
A film noir upon a giant screen
The lights are dimming, the projector rolls
A Raymond Chandler story to be told

A tired detective drinking on his own
His shaking hand picks up the telephone

He dials the number breathing rapidly
He knows there's someone there, but he can't see
He shadow's creeping closer knife in hand
I shout "look out", that wakes you "Watch your back"
Then dive on you, put you in a state of shock
So tell me how can you put up with that?

It's what lovers do
It's what lovers do

We're at a fairground so mysteriously
A roller coaster ride for you and me

Hold on tight
Hold on where
Get a grip
But there's nothing there
Don't you let go
Let go of what where
Don't let go
I can hear you calling as I scream 'i am falling'
Reaching out I grab your face but there's no place
So why put up with that

It's what lovers do
It's what lovers do

And on and on the midnight song and I will sing for you
Reach out for me, and I'll be there and I will comfort you

Another chapter in this epic dream
The roller coaster smashes through the screen
I tried to shout but fear has dried my mouth
It's looking for me as then I become the story
But you held my head and hand and said
It's okay, it's just a Dream

It's what lovers do
It's what lovers do

And on and on the fight is on, and I'll be there with you
So hold me close and don't let go and I will care for you

And on and on the midnight song and I will sing for you
Reach out for me, and I'll be there and I will comfort you

And on and on the fight is on, and I'll be there with you
So hold me close and don't let go and I will care for you

It's what lovers do
