Lovers Will Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Who'll take the only hearts they got and throw 'em into the fire?
And who'll risk their own self-respect in the name of desire?
And who'll regret every thing they've done and who'll get the bill?
I said lovers will, oh (Lovers will)
[Verse 2]
And who'll hurt each other all the time and never give it a thought?
And who'll lie about where they've been and hope they never get caught?
And who'll say each other's kisses no longer thrill?
I said, lovers will (Lovers will)
[Bridge]
Lovers will do almost anything
For the thrill that only love can bring
If love is a healer, well who'll be the first ones ill?
I said, lovers will, I said, lovers will
[Verse 3]
And who'll never know what they've got till its just about gone?
And whose arms will gather up what's left to carry on?
And who'll stalk that last little bit of love that hasn't been killed?
I said, lovers will, oh (Lovers will)
Lovers will (Lovers will)
[Outro]
Lovers will (Lovers will)
Lovers will (Lovers will)
I said lovers will (Lovers will)
Lovers will (Lovers will)
They sure will (Lovers will)
Who'll take the only hearts they got and throw 'em into the fire?
And who'll risk their own self-respect in the name of desire?
And who'll regret every thing they've done and who'll get the bill?
I said lovers will, oh (Lovers will)
[Verse 2]
And who'll hurt each other all the time and never give it a thought?
And who'll lie about where they've been and hope they never get caught?
And who'll say each other's kisses no longer thrill?
I said, lovers will (Lovers will)
[Bridge]
Lovers will do almost anything
For the thrill that only love can bring
If love is a healer, well who'll be the first ones ill?
I said, lovers will, I said, lovers will
[Verse 3]
And who'll never know what they've got till its just about gone?
And whose arms will gather up what's left to carry on?
And who'll stalk that last little bit of love that hasn't been killed?
I said, lovers will, oh (Lovers will)
Lovers will (Lovers will)
[Outro]
Lovers will (Lovers will)
Lovers will (Lovers will)
I said lovers will (Lovers will)
Lovers will (Lovers will)
They sure will (Lovers will)
