Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Took a page of the prose Blu-Tacked to your wall
And a woman in a blue robe's seducing you in her vulgarity
It turned me off, this object of lust
I only wanted to be taken seriously
I only wanted to be taken seriously
[Instrumental]
I saw your enemy out, he brought your face to mind
The lust of black lashes, complete hospitality
He turned up and the hate drained out
But for a stupid mistake, I wouldn't see it that way now
But for a stupid mistake, I wouldn't see it that way now
[Chorus]
But love can teach you how to count
How to live without a good, good enough reason
And love is the exact amount
You withdrew upon leaving
(Mmm)
(Mmm)
[Instrumental]
And on the cool slate of Baker Street, we made love on the vanity
You were trying a black haircut getting swept into the sink
It turned me on, with good reason
I only wanted to be taken seriously
I only wanted to be taken seriously
Then
[Chorus]
But love can teach you how to count
How to live without a good, good enough reason
And love is the exact amount
You withdrew upon leaving
[Outro]
And love can teach you how to count
How to live without a good, good enough reason
And love is the exact amount
You withdrew upon leaving
(Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da)
(Da-da-da-da-da)
(Da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da)
(Da-da-da-da-da-da-da)
(Da-da-da-da-da-da-da)
