David Byrne
A Soft Seduction
[Verse 1]
The words of love are not enough
Though sweet as wine, as thick as blood
Passionless moments and we are homeless
Out on the street
[Verse 2]
But life is cool and things aren't bad
Got what he wants, lost what he had
He's soon adjusted and got accustomed to these new ways
[Pre-Chorus]
Blame God, how can you loose
Singing such sweet rhythm and blues
Strange days, she said to me
Being in love don't mean you're free
[Chorus]
But night reveals what daytime hides
Who lingers on, who sleeps outside
The soft seduction, the strong attraction
Somewhere downtown
A junkie's song, a dancer's knees
The laws of chance strange as it seems
Take us exactly where we most likely need to be
A junkie's song, a dancer's knees
The laws of chance strange as it seems
Take us exactly where we most likely need to be
