Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark
Stand Above Me
[Verse 1]
We always stick together
Like we're something made of glue
And justify the passion
Saying one is more than two

[Pre-Chorus 1]
But if you don't believe the words
They're surely coming true
There's one thing that's so obvious
But it's something you won't do

[Chours]
Because you stand above me
But I know you don't (I know)
You say you love me (You say)
But I know you won't (I know)

[Verse 2]
We always say we're happy
When you know it's never true
But I was just so frightened
Of the things you'd say and do

[Pre-Chorus 1]
But if you don't believe the words
They're surely coming true
It's starting to be so obvious
That it's something you won't do
[Chours]
Because you stand above me (You stand)
But I know you don't (I know)
You say you love me (You say)
But I know you won't (I know)

[Interlude]

[Pre-Chorus 2]
If you don't believe the words
They're surely coming true
There's one thing that's so obvious
That it's something you won't do

[Chours]
Because you stand above me (You stand)
But I know you don't (I know)
You say you love me (You say)
But I know you won't (I know)

[Chours]
Because you stand above me (You stand)
But I know you don't (I know) (I know you don't)
You say you love me (You say)
But I know you won't (I know) (You say you love me)
[Chours]
Because you stand above me (You stand)
But I know you don't (I know) (I know you don't)
You say you love me (You say)
But I know you won't
