Lovers Don't Forgive (The Boy from Space Dub)

In the dreamy twilight
You're like a vision
Soothing as the rain

Like a trembling fire
Your secrets come to stay

The heat from the pyre
A premonition
The moon is new and pale

In the lonely hour
You push the world away

You're dancing here before me
Stripping me down slowly
The painted tears are holy
Telling us that lovers don't forgive

And all the bleeding flowers,
Are in remission
We watch the colours drain

Kiss the lovely liar
You're the reason I remain

I hear the midnight choir
Your composition
Is hiding hoof and tail

And in the silent tower
The passions never change

You're dancing here before me
Stripping me down slowly
The painted tears are holy
Telling us that lovers don't forgive

You play to win
You hear the plastic mermaid sing
You ride the moon
Into twilight

Your heart it sings
Your love it burns like gasoline
Your kiss it brings
Me into twilight

You're dancing here before me
Stripping me down slowly
The painted tears are holy
Telling us that lovers don't forgive

You play to win
You hear the plastic mermaid sing
You ride the moon
Into twilight

All the things that I believe
All the dreams that I will need
All the love I'll ever feel
I find in you
Lovers don't forgive
