Lyrics
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)
