The Ubiquitous Mr Lovegrove Lyrics

    I thought that you knew it all
    Well you've seen it ten times before.
    I thought that you had it down
    With both your feet on the ground.
    I love slow...slow but deep.
    Feigned affections wash over me.
    Dream on my dear
    And renounce temporal obligations.
    Dream on my dear
    It's a sleep from which you may not awaken.

    You build me up then you knock me down.
    You play the fool while i play the clown.
    We keep time to the beat of an old slave drum.
    You raise my hopes then you raise the odds
    You tell me that i dream too much
    Now i'm serving time in disillusionment.

    I don't believe you anymore...i don't believe you.

    I thought that i knew it all
    I'd seen all the signs before.
    I thought that you were the one
    In darkness my heart was won.

    You build me up then you knock me down.
    You play the fool while i play the clown.
    We keep time to the beat of an old slave drum.
    You raise my hopes then you raise the odds
    You tell me that i dream too much
    Now i'm serving time in a domestic graveyard.

    I don't believe you anymore...i don't believe you.

    Never let it be said i was untrue
    I never found a home inside of you.
    Never let it be said i was untrue
    I gave you all my time.
