All right, all right...I confess! Erasure is my favorite group of all time, even more so than U2. The proof is in the lyrics list...and it's a shame when a gay man can state what's in my heart better than any woman can...*LMAO*
Boy
Love you boy, till I fall
The child in me again, he plays the fool
Cry for joy, amen
For after all, it's only love
And the way you stir your coffee
Like an angel in the morning
Still you dare to change your mind
You'll be sorry when it's over
When you've had your taste of freedom
Don't come crying on my shoulder
Save your tears, don't mean much
Is the guilty party me? I don't think so
And it's, it's no bed of roses lying here
Tossing & turning
Still you dare to change your mind
You'll be sorry when it's over
When you've had your taste of freedom
Don't come crying on my shoulder
And these, these years of love & giving surely
Must be something to you
Still you dare to change your mind
You'll be sorry when it's over
When you've had your taste of freedom
Don't come crying on my shoulder
Dare to change your mind
You'll be sorry when it's over
When you've had your taste of freedom
Don't come crying
on my shoulder

Love Affair
It's not just a love affair, it's all or nothing
Do I bet it all on love? Or change and freak out?
When the chances come my way,
will they up and disappear?
Will it ever go my way? Or am I out of here?
There'll be tears before your bedtime,
you mark my words
You wanted more than I could give you
You wanted more than you could have
It's not just a love affair, it's now or never
Could I give it all to you? Is that what we're about?
If I hold you will you stay?
Or will you up & disappear?
Be forever & a day, like your letter said
There'll be tears before your bedtime
You mark my words
You wanted more than I could give you
You wanted more than you could have
When the chances come my way,
will they up and disappear?
Will it ever go my way? Or am I out of here?
There'll be tears before your bedtime
You mark my words
You wanted more than I could give you
You wanted more than you could have
(Love's growing stronger every day)
More than you could have
(Love's growing stronger in every way)
More than you could have
(Love's growing stronger every day)
More than you could have
(Love's growing stronger in every way)

Don't Say Your Love Is Killing Me
My eyes are closed
And I've nothing more to say
But I was so willing to give it all away
And what a show
I've loved you all I could
When will I see you, is nothing understood?
You thought I was stupid,
but now I stop at nothing (I stop at nothing)
I thought you were better,
but love's gonna take a man
Yeah love's gonna take a man
Don't say your love is killing me
You know how much it means to me
I too have feelings deep inside
But would not hurt your foolish pride
Heaven only knows
At your every turn a scandal
But how does it suit you
When it's all too much to cope with?
You thought I was nothing before
you stepped into my life
(Stepped into my life)
I thought you were clever,
but love's gonna take a man
And you haven't got it in you
Don't say your love is killing me
You know how much it means to me
I too have feelings deep inside
But would not hurt your foolish pride
Don't say your love is killing me
You know how much it means to me
I too have feelings deep inside
But would not hurt your foolish pride
Don't say your love is killing me
You know how much it means to me
I too have feelings deep inside
But would not hurt your foolish pride

Reach Out
Don't walk away
I need you more than words can say
I feel for you, this everlasting flame
My everlasting flame
I will wash away your tears
Through the pain and through the sorrow
Better days are still to come
If you would only turn around and
Reach out and touch me
Reach out and hold me
Reach out and touch me
You feel the rain
I feel the teardrops run down my face
You hide your fear in everlasting shame
My everlasting flame
We have wasted so much time
So you're saying now it's over
Better days are still to come
Don't turn your back on me now darling
Reach out and touch me
Reach out and hold me
Reach out and touch me
I will wash away your tears
Through the pain and through the sorrow
Better days are still to come
If you would only turn around and
Reach out and touch me
Reach out and hold me
Reach out and touch me
Don't walk away from me now darling
I need you now much more than ever
Don't you walk away from me my darling
