Prince & the Revolution - When Doves Cry lyrics

[Verse 1] Dig if you will the picture Of you and I engaged in a kiss The sweat of your body covers me Can you, my darling? Can you picture this? Dream if you can a courtyard An ocean of violets in bloom Animals strike curious poses They feel the heat The heat between me and you [Hook] How can you just leave me standing Alone in a world that's so cold? Maybe I'm just too demanding Maybe I'm just like my father: too bold Maybe you're just like my mother She's never satisfied Why do we scream at each other? This is what it sounds like When doves cry [Verse 2] Touch if you will my stomach Feel how it trembles inside You've got the bu*terflies all tied up Don't make me chase you Even doves have pride [Hook] Darling don't cry
