Round and round The words are spinning Why don't we take it From the beginning I know it hurts but Babe don't you worry Let's take our time honey What's the hurry? Your eyes are moving Yes I can see them The words are soothing Why don't I believe them? Your eyes are beaming But I can't receive them [Solo] You say our love just Needs some attention Maybe it's stuck in The fourth dimension You say it wants more Kissage and huggage Maybe it just got Lost with our luggage Maybe our love just Needs space to grown in A place to go to Vector to grow in Maybe what I need's A towel to throw in Don't you remember that rainy night? Riding the dog in pale moonlight Making love up in the very last row Lord have mercy Half way to Jersey Spare me the details of guts and glory The truth is just another story Why don't you give me Why don't you give me Lies I can believe? I never said I was a diplomat I guess I got no country to be true to So don't you tell me not to be like that Don't you blame me when I do like you do Life is a gamble You're never ready The sands are shifting but The winds are steady They never let up So keep your head up Don't let 'em blow you away [Solo] To every man goes His share of passion But I'm way under The legal ration I think you nailed it Right down to the letter It's getting older But it ain't getting better Maybe our love just Needs a vacation The train is rolling Out of the station Across the platform Another train is pulling in Lovers sighing in exotic places Holding hands with all the aces Making love up on the captain's table All the way, all the way home I see my past stretched out before me The truth is just another story Why don't you give me Why don't you give me Lies I can believe?
