I would have waited all my life

Just to make love out of something other than spite

But the beauty is the beast you're baiting

Should really be worth the waiting


Chorus:

You do something very special to Mr. Average

Now the lamb lies with the lion

He's just a little savage


And so you turn your back on me

And all the hot air that only echoes stale tobacco


(Chorus)


Actions speak louder now than words

By just a fraction

What's the use of saying I love you when I'm drinking to distraction

We save our sanity

By saying such and such

After it's all been discussed

You say you must be touched


(Chorus)
