When Doves Cry

Dig, if you will, the picture

Of you and I engaged in a kiss

The sweat of your body covers me

Come on, darling

Can you picture this?

Dig, if you will, a courtyard

An ocean of violets, so blue

Animals strike curious poses

They feel the heat

The heat between me and you

How could you just leave me standing

Alone in a world so cold?

Maybe I'm just too demanding

Maybe I'm just like my father, too bold

Maybe I'm just like my mother

She ain't never satisfied

Why must we scream at each other?

Mmm, this is what it sounds like

When doves cry

Touch, if you will, my belly

Feel how it trembles inside

You 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 so cold?

Maybe I'm just too demanding

Maybe I'm just like my father, too bold

Maybe I'm just like my mother

She's never satisfied

Why do we scream at each other?

Mmm, this is what it sounds like

When doves cry

Dream, if you can, courtyard

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 so cold? (Alone in a world so cold)

Maybe I'm just too demanding

Maybe I'm just like my father, too bold

Maybe I'm just like my mother (My mother)

She's never satisfied (Never satisfied)

Why must we scream at each other? (Why must we scream at each other?)

This is what it sounds like

(Oh, baby, the doves are crying)

When doves cry

Why must we scream at each other?

Oh, darling, the doves are crying

Doves are crying

Doves are crying

Doves are crying

(Doves are crying)

Doves are crying
