peter gabriel “lovetown”

Peo­ple go naked and pick up these trails
Some­one before me laid down these rails
When it’s loaded up too heavy,
this engine fails
In love­town
I can’t set­tle down
And do those teeth still match the wound
Take a good look around
In lovetown

Aaahha, aaahha
Look­ing in love­town
Aaahha, aaahha
This is lovetown

Some­times you’re stormy water
on which I pour my oil
In each other’s shadow
The roots reach into the soil
All these knots so tightly tied
We could not uncoil
In love­town
No place to set­tle down
And do those teeth still match the wound
Take a good look around
In lovetown

Aaahha, aaahha
This is love­town
Aaahha, aaahha
Look­ing in lovetown

Who’s lonely lips will find these hid­den scars?
Who’s seen the kisses left in dim lit bars?
Who’s out in the streets, look­ing for love like ours?
Who’s look­ing in love­town tonight?

Have you got what you want
Said have you got what you need
With what you did and what you saw
Did you find you needed more
Have you got what you came for
Are you really so sure
Are you really so sure

Look­ing in love­town
In love­town
Liv­ing in love­town
Hey yeah yeah

Be Socia­ble, Share!
