I climb in bed

She's distracted

Flipping pages

Asking for the matches

Cigarette smoke hangs

Just like a curtain

That makes me wonder

Is her love for certain?



I see the truth now

She gave me the blues today

She turns the lights out

Whenever i want to play



Chorus:

(l.o.v.e.) she don't get the message

All i ever wanted was your love

All i ever wanted was your love



Our love is dyin'

On the cold sheets

My body aching

To warm a heart with no heat

Just a whisper

Of the "l" word

Makes her shiver

She touches love with cold feet



In her heart lies the naked truth

I could use today

She turns the lights out

Before my heart can say...



Chorus



Bridge:

L's the word that i heard

From your lips, your hips, your fingertips

L's the word in the wind

Love has touched my heart again

L's the word to be heart

From your lips, your hips, your fingertips



Chorus



Bridge



Vamp 1:

(l.o.v.e.)



Vamp 2:

(l.o.v.e.)

(l's the word that i heard)

(l's the word that i heard)

(l's the word that i heard)

(l's the word that i heard)

(from your lips, your hips, your fingertips)

(from your lips, your hips, your fingertips)
