Well I said what I wanted to say
But the words just got in the way Maybe we can never work it out Seems like all we ever do is scream and shout And your drift is getting harder to catch This love it's like a wrestling match Do we do it til our kisses feel like two big cuts that will not heal [Chorus:] Babe, there ain't no window open No hoping for a sudden change And there is no door to get out of before this love gets strange And loves gets strange We used to wonder what it's all about But I just wanna take this garbage out Maybe underneath the moonlight sky I could come up with one reason to lie We took it all for better or worse Though we didn't take a look at it first We were blinded by the brightest light Just to be on our knees in the dark tonight [Chorus] Most spring we were doing our thing Summer came the heat was to blame The tears you cry and the autumnal sky (?) And the cold winter chill baby --- you still We said what we wanted to say But the words just got in the way Baby we could never work it out Seems like all we do is scream and shout And we're frozen in this shadowy world Silouhettes of a boy and a girl You were never ---- til they get so big you can't see them at all And babe, there ain't no window open No hoping for a sudden change And there is no door to get out of before this love gets strange |

Well you can get a hand
There's one to be had They're all working on the other side of town Tonight must be the night Everybody's set their sights And the lovers jamboree is where they're bound Well, everybody will find someone Someone's looking out for me So I'm shutting up the shop Let the loving never stop You can drop me at the lovers jamboree Let me tell ya... There's something in the air That's kicking back despair What a strange thing, I'm feeling good tonight The gangs and wrecking crews Have all declared a truce As the lovers jamboree begins to [bite] Well now, everybody's got to get there And I'll be taking two 'f our friends Tell the left man be so kind Not to call if he don't mind He'll find me at the lovers jamboree Let me tell ya... Well now, everybody's got to get there And I'll be taking two 'f our friends Tell the postman hold my mail Or redirect it to the jail Tell the Hebrew and the Greek To get the God up good and steep Tell the meek the mild the [hoax in] lame The sisters of mercy, they're shrouded in flame The Church and him are sharing the blame For the lovers jamboree For the lovers jamboree The lovers jamboree |

Have you ever heard a love song that you didn't understand
Were you ever in a teahouse on the Island of Japan And have you ever traveled over many thousand miles To see a pretty Geisha girl dressed in Oriental style. They've read it in the tea leaves and it's written in the sand I found love by the heartful in the foreign distant land Tell the homefolks that I'm happy with someone who's true I know I love a pretty Geisha girl where the ocean breezes blow. [Instrumental] I have stood and watched the sunrise by the waters of the sea And wondered how much beauty in this whole world can that be My dreams are all worth dreaming and it makes my life worth while To see a pretty Geisha girl dressed in Oriental style. (They've read it in the tea leaves and it's written in the sand I found love by the heartful in the foreign distant land) Tell the homefolks that I'm happy with someone who's true I know I love a pretty Geisha girl where the ocean breezes blow... |

Can't you tell my love's a growing?
Feel it, ain't it showing? Oh, you must be a'knowing I've got a big, big love It ain't the kind to be concealing The kind to be revealing It ain't a little bitty feeling I've got a big, big love for you And it's time we done some walking And time we done some talking Well there's a great big moon above And we've got a big, big love It ain't infatuation It's true love sensation Well, not my imagination I've got a big, big love for you |
