lyrics

who's gonna lift me up when I fall out love

you've been tellin' me
that you're leaving
that the whole thing's gone too far
but wherever that is
ain't no further
than the sound of our shouting wars
now what d'you have to say

who's gonna lift me up when I fall out love
who's gonna lift me up when I fall out love
'cos it's you that I'm wanting and you that I'm cravin'
and you that my mind's been thinking of

for a long long time (ooh)
you've been gambling (been gambling)
with my heart, baby (yeah)
but whatever your game (whatever)
we will never be the same again
now won't you tell me whether

you gonna lift me up when I fall out love
you gonna lift me up when I fall out love
'cause excuses have uses and you are the user
but you are excused 'cause they're all used up

so tell me why
when the sun goes down
my eyes are at the door, my mind is out runnin' around town
my eyes are at the door, my mind is out runnin' around town

talking 'bout my reputation - oh don't you know
talking 'bout my reputation - my name is cupid, not stupid
we're talking 'bout my reputation - mm
we're talking 'bout my reputation - yeah
so won't you tell me, baby

who's gonna lift me up when I fall out love
who's gonna lift me up when I fall out love
'cause it's you that I'm wanting and you that I'm cravin'
you that my mind's been dreaming of
so tell me, baby

who's gonna lift me up when I fall out love
who's gonna lift me up when I fall out love
'cause excuses have uses and you are the user
but you are excused 'cause they're all used up

so tell me why
when the sun goes down
my eyes are at the door, my mind is out runnin' around town
let me say it again, hey
why
when the sun goes down
my eyes are at the door, my mind is out runnin' around town
let me say it one more time baby, hey now
eyes are at the door my mind is out runnin' around town

who's gonna lift me up when I fall out love
who's gonna lift me up when I fall out love
who's gonna lift me up when I fall out love
who's gonna lift me up when I fall out love
