Dig, if you will, the picture Of you and I engaged in a kiss The sweat of your body covers me Can you, my darling Can you picture this? Dream, if you can, a courtyard An ocean of violets in bloom. Animals strike curious poses They feel the heat The heat between me and you How can you just leave me standing Alone in a world that's so cold? (So cold) Maybe I'm just too demanding Maybe I'm just like my father, too bold Maybe you're just like my mother She's never satisfied (She's never satisfied) Why do we scream at each other? This is what it sounds like When doves cry When doves cry Ooh-ooh, oh Touch, if you will, my stomach Feel how it trembles inside You've got the butterflies all tied up Don't make me chase you Even doves have pride How can you just leave me standing Alone in a world that's so cold? (So cold) Maybe I'm just too demanding Maybe I'm just like my father, too bold Maybe you're just like my mother She's never satisfied (She's never satisfied) Why do we scream at each other? This is what it sounds like When doves cry When doves cry Ooh-ooh, oh When doves cry Ooh-ooh, oh When doves cry When doves cry When doves cry Ooh-ooh, oh When doves cry
