Erasure • Lyrics

Boy

Boy
Written by Clarke / Bell

The child in me again, he plays the fool
Cry for joy, amen
For after all, it's only love
And the way you stir your coffee
Like an angel in the morning

Still you dare to change your mind
You'll be sorry when it's over
When you've had your taste of freedom
Don't come crying on my shoulder

Save your tears, don't mean much
Is the guilty party me? I don't think so
And it, it's no bed of roses lying here
Tossing and turning

Still you dare to change your mind
You'll be sorry when it's over
When you've had your taste of freedom
Don't come crying on my shoulder

And these, these years of love and giving surely
Must be something to you

Still you dare to change your mind
You'll be sorry when it's over
When you've had your taste of freedom
Don't come crying on my shoulder

Dare to change your mind
You'll be sorry when it's over
When you've had your taste of freedom
Don't come crying on my shoulder

Dare to change your mind
You'll be sorry when it's over
When you've had your taste of freedom
Don't come crying on my shoulder

Cry So Easy
Written by Bell

Drawn the line, don't wanna waste my time on an unresponsive kid like you
Who made the effort? You devil in disguise, you just keep on trying to win affection with your smile

Baby cry so easy, expect me to believe in the love you're looking for
Say you'd never leave me, but babe I can't believe in the love you're looking for

Danger signs opened up the eyes of an unsuspecting fool like me
What about an effort? What about tonight? What's the use in trying when nothing's going right?

Baby cry so easy, expect me to believe in the love you're looking for
Say you'd never leave me, but babe I can't believe in the love you're looking for

Baby cry so easy, expect me to believe in the love you're looking for
Say you'd never leave me, but babe I can't believe in the love you're looking for

Can't you see that you're turning me into a cold, cold kid like you?
Forget the effort now you're not mine, no more use in smiling, it's time to say goodbye

Baby cry so easy, expect me to believe in the love you're looking for
Say you'd never leave me, but babe I can't believe in the love you're looking for

Baby cry so easy, expect me to believe in the love you're looking for
Say you'd never leave me, but babe I can't believe in the love you're looking for

I Bet You're Mad At Me
Written by Clarke / Bell

Don't justify for what you are and where you've been?
For who you are tonight, so lonesome tonight
Make believe just hanging on you're crazy
That's who you are tonight, all over tonight

Tell the world you're still afraid been on this road too long

Falling soft and raining hard so wrap up well
It's freezing cold tonight, so cold tonight
Tell me all I need to know I'll spare your fears
So sad you seem tonight the tears you cry tonight

I've stayed away along time now but I'll be home tonight

I bet you're mad at me, can't you read my lips
I see you're eyes are blue, what you want from me?
It's not the way it should be, you got the world to give
I gave you all my love but you're mad at me

Tonight, all over tonight
Tell the world you're still afraid been on this road too long

I bet you're mad at me, can't you read my lips
I see you're eyes are blue, what you want from me?
It's not the way it should be, you got the world to give
I gave you all my love but you're mad at me

I bet you're mad at me, can't you read my lips
I see you're eyes are blue, what you want from me?
It's not the way it should be, you got the world to give
I gave you all my love but you're mad at me

I bet you're mad at me, can't you read my lips
I see you're eyes are blue, what you want from me?
It's not the way it should be, you got the world to give
I gave you all my love but you're mad at me

I bet you're mad at me, can't you read my lips
I see you're eyes are blue, what you want from me?
It's not the way it should be, you got the world to give
I gave you all my love but you're mad at me
