Next Lover

Who are you dreaming of now
 Is she flesh real
 Or carved in memory
 Who are you dreaming of now
 Is she flesh real
 Or bloodless fantasy
 From a film heroine
 There goes innocence fading away
 Here comes bitterness after you pay
 For believing in stories man-made
 Yes, we all want to be your next lover
 But we scared so we're running you down
 Yes, we all want to be your next lover
 But your beauty's too far above ground
 From a film heroine
 We will laugh at the worst of your jokes
 Steal a kiss if we can, buy you flowers and gifts
 Every move is a plan, you can measure this man
 By the depths of his lies, you can measure this man
 Yes we all want to be your next lover
 Yes we all want to be your next lover
 We are driven by things you can't feel
 Are we stealing or are we the steal
 So we lie like a priest
 To slide under and into inside
 Love is cruel but love seldom kind
 Yes we all want to be your next lover
 Yes we all want to be your next lover
 I can lie like the best of them
 Wait with the patience of man
 Seem so understanding
 While I'm making my plans
 I'm so full of desire, I've forgotten your name
 I'm so full of desire, I could burst into flames
 I'm so full of desire I can't hope to control
 This desire that's closer to pain
 River runs where all rivers go
 This desire will not be contained
 Yes we all want to be your next lover
 Yes we all want to be your next lover
 Lover
 Lover
 I love her
 Who are you dreaming of now
 Is she flesh real
 Or carved in memory
