Lovers That Never Were
(mccartney/macmanus)
I have always needed somebody, girl
But I close the doors to keep out the world
But for you
I would be here all alone
Locked in a photograph
All of the clocks have run down
Lover beware
Well be the lovers that never were
I hang patiently on every word you send
Will we ever be much more than just friends?
As for you
You sit there playing this game
You keep me waiting
When all of the clocks have run down
All over the world
Well be the lovers that never were
For as long as the sun shines
In somebodys eyes
I believe in you, baby
So dont tell me lies
For as long as the trees
Throw down blossoms and leaves
I know there will be
A parade of unpainted dreams
And I know, dear
How much its going to hurt
If you still refuse to get your hands dirty
So you
You must tell me something...i love you
Say goodbye or anything
All of the clocks have run down
Times at an end
If we cant be lovers well never be friends
For as long as the sun shines
In somebodys eyes
I believe in you, baby
So dont tell me lies
For as long as the trees
Throw down blossoms and leaves
I know there will be
A parade of unpainted dreams
