Dear Lover

I'm only skin and bones
Pierce my heart to its own
Seems such a reasonable sin
Mortal man under bones and skin

Dear lover, don't bother me
Dear lover, don't bother me
I can say this with certainty
I'm living the only way i can get by

Don't say what you want to say
There's no reason for words to escape
I'll wait for you if you call
Pity me and pity us all

Dear lover, don't bother me
Dear lover, don't bother me
I can say this with certainty
I'm living the only way i can get by

All the rules you put on yourself
Send me straight to somebody else
All the rules that you push onto me
Tend to cause infidelity

Dear lover, don't bother me
Dear lover, don't bother me
I can say this with certainty
