[Verse 1: Andy Bell]
My eyes are closed and I've nothing more to say
But I was so willing to give it all away

[Verse 2: Andy Bell]
And what a show
I've loved you all I could
When will I see you
Is nothing understood?

[Pre-Chorus 1: Andy Bell, John Gibbons, Jordan Bailey & Samantha Smith]
You thought I was stupid
But now I stop (Stoped!) at nothing (I stop at nothing)
I thought you were better
But love's gonna take a man
Yeah love's gonna take a man

[Chorus: Andy Bell, John Gibbons, Jordan Bailey & Samantha Smith]
Don't say your love is killing me
You know how much it means to me
I too have feelings deep inside
But would not hurt your foolish pride

[Verse 3: Andy Bell, Jordan Bailey & Samantha Smith]
Heaven only knows
At your every turn a scandal
But how's it suit you
When it's all too much to cope with?
