When Doves Cry

Damien Rice

Take if you will a picture
Of you and I engaged in a kiss
The sweat of your body covers me
Can you my darling, can you picture this?

Dream if you can a courtyard:
Oceans and violets in bloom
Animals strike curious poses
They feel the heat
The heat between me and you

Touch if you will my stomach
Feel how it trembles inside
You've got the butterflies all tied up
Don't make me chase you
'Cause even doves have pride

How can you just leave me standing?
Alone in the world so cold
Maybe I'm just too demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father, too cold
Maybe you're just like my mother
She's never satisfied
Never satisfied...with each other
This is what sounds like when the doves cry.

DonÂ't cry. DonÂ't cry.....
DonÂ't cry. DonÂ't cry. DonÂ't cry. DonÂ't cry
Â'Cause baby, baby, baby, baby
IÂ'm gonna leave you
I ainÂ't your kin women
IÂ've got you rambled
IÂ'll leave you when the summer comes
Leave you when the summer comes along

Â'Cause, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
IÂ'm gonna leave you
Take if you will a picture
of you and I engaged in a kiss
The sweat of your body covers me
Can you my darling, can you picture this?
