Sometimes there are teardrops across your face
Sometimes there are rainbows in the same place
And I don't know which way to turn

Sometimes lovers don't act like they should
And sometimes lovers don't do all they could
Sometimes lovers hide in the cover
Of innocence and blame
I know sometimes we act just the same

Your heart's in the city, it wears me down
No love, no pity, in this town
And I don't know which way to turn

Sometimes lovers don't act like they should
And sometimes lovers don't do all they could
Sometimes lovers hide in the cover
Of innocence and blame
I know baby

Hold on tight to me mama
Tell me what went wrong
I'm alright I will lay beside you
Till the night is gone

Ah, oo...

Sometimes lovers don't act like they should
And sometimes lovers don't do all they could
Sometimes lovers hide in the cover
Of innocence and blame

Sometimes lovers don't act like they should
Sometimes lovers don't do all they could
Sometimes lovers hide in the cover
Of innocence and blame
