How can you just leave me standing
Alone in a world that's 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
Why do we scream at each other?
This is what it sounds like when doves cry
Yes, they cry, oh they cry
How can you just leave me standing
Alone in a world that's 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
Why do we scream at each other?
This is what it sounds like when doves cry
This is what it sounds like, this is what it sounds like
This is what it sounds like, oh ah, oh ah
Dream, if u can, a courtyard
An ocean of violets in bloom
Animals strike curious poses
They feel the heat, the heat between me and you
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
Doves cry, you know that they cry
You know that they cry, you know that they cry
You know that they cry, you know that they cry
How can you just leave me standing
(You know that they cry)
Alone in a world that's so cold?
(You know that they cry)
Maybe I'm just too demanding

(You know that they cry)
Maybe you're just like my mother
(You know that they cry)
She's never satisfied
(You know that they cry)
Why do we scream at each other?
(You know that they cry)
