When Doves Cry Lyrics - Patti Smith

Dig if you will the picture 

Of you and I engaged in a kiss 

The sweat of your body covers me 

Come on 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

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

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 

Touch if you will my belly 

Feel how it trembles inside 

You've got the butterflies all tied up 

Don't make me chase you 

Even doves have pride 

How can you just leave me standing? 

Alone in a world so cold? 

Maybe I'm just too demanding 

Maybe I'm just like my father too bold 

Maybe I'm just like my mother 

She's never satisfied 

Why do we scream at each other 

This is what it sounds like 

When doves cry 

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 

How can you just leave me standing? 

Alone in a world that's so cold? (a world that's so cold) 

Maybe I'm just too demanding (maybe, maybe I'm like my father) 

Maybe I'm just like my father too bold (ya know he's 2 bold) 

Maybe I'm just like my mother (maybe you're just like my mother) 

She's never satisfied (she's never, never satisfied) 

Why do we scream at each other (why do we scream at each other) 

This is what it sounds like 

When doves cry 

When doves cry (doves cry, doves cry, doves cry 

Don't cry 

Darling don't cry 

Don't cry 

Don't cry 

Don't don't cry
