Lyrics: Roland Orzabal/Curt Smith
Music: Roland Orzabal/Curt Smith
I wanted to be with you alone
and talk about the weather
but traditions I can trace against the child in your face
won’t escape my attention
you keep your distance with a system of touch
and gentle persuasion
I’m lost in admiration – could I need you this much?
oh you’re wasting my time, you are just wasting time
something happens and I’m head over heels
I never find out til I’m head over heels
something happens and I’m head over heels
don’t take my heart, don’t break my heart
I made a fire and I’m watching it burn
I thought of your future
with one foot in the past now just how long can it last?
oh no no, have you no ambition?
my brother and my brothers used to breathe in clean air
and dreaming I’m a doctor
it’s hard to be a man when there’s a gun in your hand
oh no, I, feel so....
something happens and I’m head over heels
I never find out til I’m head over heels
something happens and I’m head over heels
oh don’t take my heart don’t break my heart
don’t throw it away
and this is my four leaf clover
I’m on the line, one open mind
and this is my four leaves
na na na na na, na na na na na
naaaa na, naaaaa na, na na x4
