[Chorus 1: Simon Le Bon]
Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in shame?
And if love can conquer all
Then why do we only feel the pain?
[Verse 1: Simon Le Bon]
I heard you speak my name
Heard you singing The Stones
Maybe heard you laughing in a line of static
On my telephone
So why your eyelids are closed
Inside a case of rust
And did you have to change
All your poet's fire into frozen dust?
I try to justify it
To learn from your mistake
But where's the stupid lie that has to make its point
With such a pointless waste?
Come out
[Chorus 2: Simon Le Bon]
Do you believe in shame?
Do you believe in love?
And if they taste the same
Would you love again or abandon both?
Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in shame?
And if love can conquer all
Then why do we only feel the pain?
[Verse 1: Simon Le Bon]
I heard you speak my name
Heard you singing The Stones
Maybe heard you laughing in a line of static
On my telephone
So why your eyelids are closed
Inside a case of rust
And did you have to change
All your poet's fire into frozen dust?
I try to justify it
To learn from your mistake
But where's the stupid lie that has to make its point
With such a pointless waste?
Come out
[Chorus 2: Simon Le Bon]
Do you believe in shame?
Do you believe in love?
And if they taste the same
Would you love again or abandon both?
