Chocolate Girl Lyrics - Deacon Blue

Alan doesn't understand her 

He only thinks in numbers 

He only drinks in restaurants 

Where the girls are fully covered 

And he can't trust his yearnings 

And he doesn't like pretending 

His tempers stretched so much by work 

His heart needs gentle rending 

He calls her the chocolate girl 

Cause he thinks she melts when he touches her 

She knows she's the chocolate girl 

Cause she's broken up and swallowed 

And wrapped in bits of silver 

Alan doesn't understand this 

He says he's only human 

So he still lights up with old flames 

As if to try and prove it 

And he doesn't like emotion 

He's not certain of their ardor 

If pouting causes so much fun 

Then breaking hearts is harder 

He calls her the chocolate girl 

Cause he thinks she melts when he touches her 

She knows she's the chocolate girl 

Cause she's broken up and swallowed 

And wrapped in bits of silver 

Alan doesn't understand her 

He thinks it's getting harder 

So he spends the night with old friends 

Underneath the covers 

And he talks about the chocolate girl 

And how he thinks she melts when he touches her 

And that she knows she's the chocolate girl 

Cause she's broken up and swallowed 

And wrapped in bits of silver 

And he calls her the chocolate girl 

Cause he thinks she melts when he touches her 

And she knows she's the chocolate girl 

Cause she's broken up and swallowed 

And wrapped in bits of silver
