Lyrics The Things Lovers Should Do - Chris Rea

The Things Lovers Should Do

Standing in the half-light
Wondering if he can
There stands the priest of sinners
Consolation in his hands
Though he prays that he won’t need it He keeps it by his side
Waiting for the face-up and the answer in her eyes
All while the music’s playing a backdrop serenade
There’s only one point of view
To be doing the things that lovers should do Disco-queens in dancestep
Moving face to face
All tangled up in neon, don’t think it’s some disgrace
The blue western denim
The East Coast razor edge
The European fashion
The leathers and re-treads
All while the music’s playing a backdrop serenade
There’s only one point of view
To be doing the things that lovers should do
