Alan Jay - Lovers & Survivors (Love After Chaos) Lyrics

I pulled the covers over my head
But I still heard them fight
Committed to their loyalty
To stay married all their lives
They said they loved each other
Ls that all love can claim?
Lovers and survivors
Must we be the same?

Lovers and survivors
Are more than smiling faces
More than cryin' violins
More than shakin' drums
Lovers and survivors
Loving chi ldren from the start
Nervous kids with cold hands
We warm you from the heart

Determined to be different
We tried and tried and tried
We faced love disillusioned
Full of wrinkled pride
We lost the innocence of children
But we found the strength to strive
Lovers and survivors
We do more than just survive

Lovers and survivors
Are more than smiling faces
More than cryin' violins
More than shakin' drums
Lovers and survivors
Loving chi ldren from the start
Nervous kids with cold hands
We warm you from the heart

I pull the covers 'round us both
I pull you close to me
I pul l together heart and breath
Flesh and honesty
We may travel down familiar roads
But we also break new ground
Lovers and survivors
New lives can be found

Lovers and survivors
New lives can be found
