*Verse One*

Dig if you will the picture

Of you and I engaged in a kiss

The sweat of your body covers G

Can you my darling

Can you picture this?

Dream if you can a courtyard

An ocean of violets in bloom

Animals strike curious poses

I feel the heat

The heat between me and you

*Chorus*

How can you just leave me standing?

Alone in a world that's so cold? (So cold)

Maybe I'm just too demanding

Maybe I'm just like my father too bold

Maybe you're just like my mother

She's never satisfied (She's never satisfied)

Why do we scream at each other

This is what it sounds like

When doves cry

*Verse Two*

Touch if you will my stomach

Feel how it trembles inside

You've got the butterflies all tied up

Don't make me chase you

Even doves have pride

*Chorus*

How can you just leave me standing?

Alone in a world so cold? (World so cold)

Maybe I'm just too demanding (maybe maybe)

Maybe I'm just like my father too bold (too bold)

Maybe you're just like my mother

She's never satisfied (She's never satisfied)

Why do we scream at each other (why)

This is what it sounds like

When doves cry

ooh ooh ooh - baby
