My Lover

歌詞

My lover likes to be alone My lover likes to be alone He thinks the world is his special place Where no one else can go But I'd do anything to be in his arms My lover does not cry I have asked him to tell me why But he just walks away - never bats a big brown eye He rather talk to the bums on Avenue B Than share a shred of his miserable life with me And I'd do anything to be in his arms I can't say the words my lover needs to hear He asks me, "Do you love me" I say the question isn't clear There are silences unbroken by anything but fear Of all the cruelty we've encountered And he washes down with cheap domestic beer And I'd do anything to be in his arms He's not good to me And I'm a vicious dog There is nothing on which we agree Except that we bring each other misery There's no reconciliation It's all just pain humiliation I'd have him mowed down as roadkill After all of this frustration And I'd do anything to be in his arms My lover likes to be alone
