The things lovers should do lyrics

Standing in the half light, wondering if you can

There stands the priest of sinners, consolation in his hands

Though he prays he won't need it, he keeps it by his side

Waiting for the face up and the answer in her eyes

All while the music's playing a backdrop serenade

There's only one point of view

To be doing the things, things that lovers should do

Disco-queens in dance step, moving face to face

All tangled up in neon don't think it's some disgrace

The blue Western denim, the East coats razor edge

The European fashion, the leathers and re-threads

All while the music's playing a backdrop serenade

There's only one point of view

To be doing the things, things that lovers should do
