Lyrics of Lovers in the city

I'd never call this an unpleasant situation
I'd never teach you how to lie
But sometimes i have been walking numb
And i must catch myself before i cry
Before i cry

I never call anything ugly
I never call anything strange and alone
I never want to take things lightly
Like they have never been my own

Oh, don't, now i haven't heard it yet
Oh, don't, i haven't heard
But i know them and they are inclined to see
Just who is and isn't a lover in the city

I always thought i would be star bright
I always thought you'd feel it too
But sometimes i have been making conversation
And i must catch myself before i'm down
I'm down on you

I never think they would be scaring me
Sacred couples in this cold
They look so fine in their eagerness
I wonder to myself just how they know

Oh, don't, now i haven't heard it yet
Oh, don't, i haven't heard
But i know them and they are inclined to see
Just who is and isn't a lover in the city

I swear
I'm staking out the whole world
I swear
I'm staking out the whole world
I'm staking out the whole world

I could never entertain you
I'd be far too scared to try
But sometimes i have been talking dumb
And i forget myself and don't ask why

Oh, don't, now i haven't heard it yet
Oh, don't, i haven't heard
But i know them and they are inclined to see
Just who is and isn't a lover in the city
