Love Is A Sign Lyrics - Singles - Go-betweens

I'm ten feet under water 

Standing in a sunken canoe 

Looking up at the waterlilies 

They're green and violet blue 

Still the sun it finds a place to light me 

Still the sun it finds that it's warm beside me 

Green and violet blue 

No matter what you say no matter what you do 

I want to be the one and love is a sign 

The letters that were writing 

Baby they just break our hearts 

And when we get back together again 

There's just no time to start 

No time to restore it's all on the ground 

What you've been doing against what I've found 

And this is what I find 

No matter what you say no matter what you do 

I want to be the one and love is a sign 

I'm not a playboy or a poet 

There's no cool water from the well 

I wish you had a big house 

And that your work would start to sell 

Wave after wave, our tension and our tenderness 

Wave after wave, our tension and our tenderness 

Green and violet blue 

No matter what you say no matter what you do 

I want to be the one and love is a sign 

I know I'll see you again 

The world is too big or too small 

I won't be the madman then 

It will be me that's come to call 

Me in freezing weather snow cuffs on my wrist 

You down by the river London no longer exists 

This is what I find 

No matter what you say no matter what you do 

I want to be the one and love is a sign
