Prince (with-out Revolution)

Dig if you
will the picture
Of you and
I engaged
in a kiss
The sweat of
your body
covers me

Can you
my darling
Can you
picture this?
Dream,
if you can,
a courtyard
An ocean of
violets in bloom
Animals strike
curious poses
They feel
the heat
The heat between
me and you
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
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
How could you just
leave me standing

Alone in a world
so cold? (World 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
How can you just leave me standing
Alone in a world that’s so cold? (A world that’s so cold)
Maybe I’m just too demanding (maybe, maybe I’m like my father)
Maybe I’m just like my father too bold (you know he’s too bold)
Maybe you’re just like my mother (maybe you’re just like my mother)
She’s never satisfied (she’s never, never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other? (Why do we scream, why)
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry
When doves cry (doves cry, doves cry)
When doves cry (doves cry, doves cry)
Don’t cry (don’t cry)
