When Doves Cry

When Doves Cry
How can you leave me standing
Alone in a world that's 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
Why do we scream at each other?
This is what it sounds like when doves cry
This is what it sounds like when doves cry

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 leave me standing (standing)
Alone in a world that's 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
Why do we scream at each other?
This is what it sounds like, when doves cry
Oh
Touch if you will my stomach
Feel how it trembles inside (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 leave me standing (standing)
Alone in a world that's so cold? (Alone in a world that's so cold)
Maybe I'm just too demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father, too bold
Maybe you're just like my mother (yeah)
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, oh yeah

How can you leave me standing
Alone in a world that's 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
Why do we scream at each other?
This is what it sounds like when doves cry (when doves cry)
This is what it sounds like when doves cry
This is what it sounds like when doves cry (why do we scream? Why do we scream?)
This is what it sounds like when doves cry (oh)
This is what it sounds like when doves cry
This is what it sounds like when doves cry (sounds like)
This is what it sounds like when doves cry (this is what it sounds like)
This is what it sounds like when doves cry (oh)
