Scritti Politti + Miles Davis

Songtekst

I had a dream of us together in a world where we knew what was true
Oh, Patti, don't lead the life that I left you with
It's been such a long time and I know

We tried together to discover why we failed the test of our time
Oh, Patti, don't lead the life that they made for you
I'll be gone a long while and you'll know

And don't feel sorry for lover boy
You know he wants the world to love him
And then he goes and spoils it all

Don't feel sorry for lover boy
He wants the world to love him
Then he goes and spoils it all for love

There's no-one out here you can listen to and certainly never yourself
Oh, Patti, don't lead the life that I left you with
Listen to the cars call in the rain

I got so tired of concluding that there's nothing for us to conclude
Oh, Patti, don't look for certainty in your life
I've gone where a lost cause can be found

And don't feel sorry for lover boy
You know he wants the world to love him
And then he goes and spoils it all

Don't feel sorry for lover boy
He wants the world to love him
Then he goes and spoils it all for love

All for love, girl, all for love

And don't feel sorry for lover boy
You know he wants the world to love him
And then he goes and spoils it all

Don't feel sorry for lover boy
He wants the world to love him

Don't feel sorry for lover boy
He wants the world to love him
Oh yeah

Don't feel sorry for lover boy
He wants the world to love him
And then he goes and spoils it all

Don't feel sorry for lover boy
He wants the world to love him
Then he goes and spoils it all for love
