Though you and I
Are totally unsuitable
For love of this kind
Or work of any kind
We sit back
Push the boat out
Lost at sea
Lost in fantasy
All is calm
All is quiet
This rose is a thorn tree
Why can't I leave?
This love is just a make believe
High water washes all defences away
Why can't I leave?
This love is just a make believeWhy can't I leave?
This love is just a make believe
Bulldozers knocking down houses
CAN YOU HEAR?
Dogs barking and people shouting
CAN YOU HEAR?
Sirens and helicopters
CAN YOU HEAR?
Stand away from the window
CAN YOU HEAR?
