Whatever Lovers Say

I come to see you in the market

Where the buyers buy and sell their wares

I want to reach into your apron

Take your hands and save you from this fate

Like to invite you to my lighthouse

Show you boats and woo you like the sailors do

But i can only see you in the market place

With a little ring i'll probably never bring to you

We'd watch the early morning street cleaners cleaning streets

With eyes wide awake until the vampires hit their sheets and

We'd find a way to turn the hours into weeks

And then we'd say whatever lovers say

Want to impress you with my palace

When i make money i'll buy a little place for two

But i just rent a bedsit here in paris

Could it be good for a prince like you

We'd watch the early morning street cleaners cleaning streets

With eyes wide awake until the vampires hit their sheets and

We'd find a way to turn the hours into weeks

And then we'd say whatever lovers say

We'd live a longer life than candles that everybody buys

At local discount stores

We'd watch the early morning street cleaners cleaning streets

With eyes wide awake until the vampires hit their sheets and

We'd find a way to turn the hours into weeks

And then we'd say whatever lovers say
