Love is over-rated Say those who've never known Turning a page To each uncertain afternoon And they're giving me a chance to see All the reasons and all of the keys Paying my way for another day.
Things you said in virtue Underneath the moon Carrying your umbrella On some cloudy afternoon And they're giving me the chance to see All the reasons and all of the keys Paying my way for another day.
Books you've never read And letters you never wrote All I can ever remember Is carrying your coat And you're giving me the chance to see All the reasons and all of the keys Paying my way for another day.
Bright lights in your window They're reminding me of home You think you're so unfettered But you never forget to phone And you're giving me the chance to see All the reasons and all of the keys Paying my way for another day.
Diamonds on your fingers And ashes in your heart All the love we ever had Quickly pulled us apart And you're giving me the chance to see All the reasons and all of the keys Paying my way for another day.
Love is so uncertain Said someone I once met All it takes is a kiss And an afternoon in bed And they're giving me the chance to see All the reasons and all of the keys Paying my way for another day.
