What do I have to do
To get through to you
The sun makes you blind
What do I do to keep you in line?
We are afraid of the dark
What do you say, say nothing
Which by the way, means nothing at all
Ch) all the others
weren’t what they seemed
They kissed
and left me with sour dreams
And in a cold December,
a courting we will be
Just please don’t raise
your voice to me
I do
You’re having dreams again
Like no-one should
When you never thought those lessons
Would ever come to any good
Do I follow you to normal
That’s as far as I can reach
Time has been hard
To you and me
Ch) all the others
Weren’t what they seemed
They kissed
And left me with sour dreams
And in a cold December
A courting we will be
Just please don’t raise
Your voice to me
I do
Br) they storm, they run
Yellow-eyed through sleep
In the dawn, in the morning
In the company we keep
Ch) all the others
Weren’t what they seemed
They kissed
And left me with sour dreams
And in a cold December
A courting we will be
Just please don’t raise
Your voice to me
I do
