Digital Tenderness
Adam And The Ants · Other Songs - Adam And The Ants
always scare me away?
why do the feelings that I have for you
have to become a word ?
don't say you "love" me-oh no
don't ask that from me-oh no no
that alphabet you call love
that alphabet you call love
that alphabet you call love
is just a digital tenderness
tenderness
here is the start for so many broken people
all with a hard luck story
and a sad sad tale
don't say you love me-oh no
don't ask that from me-oh no no
that alphabet you call love
that alphabet you call love
that alphabet you call love
is just a digital tenderness
tenderness
sometimes
I need to be by myself
I need to be by your side
I need
sometimes
I need the company of art
I ned the company of friends
I need you
and my heart is stronger
than a four-letter-long word
searching the eyes of so many broken
people
whose cowardice proved much too strong
for vice
don't say you "love" me ...
oh no
don't ask that from me
no no no
that alphabet you call "love"
that alphabet you call "love"
