Oh dear, love's such a chore

Something you've got but you never show

It's like some deed left undone

Or a reap you'll never sow



It's like you'll never get it done

It's like you'll never get it done

It's like you'll never get it done



Where's your heart? where's your head?

Girl, your body's in my bed

I know it's hard to forget, every word we've said



But it's like you'll never let it go

It's like you'll never let it go

It's you'll never let it go



Oh, I know it's hard

Oh, but lover, I don't know just where you are

I've been trying to find ways to find your lover's heart

End up with your cold shoulder, uh oh

Oh I am not crumbling

Though I thought that I might from what it's done to me

It might never be the way we thought it ought to be

Lovers never sleep alone, uh oh



Oh my god, what a mess

Oo it is, I must confess

Every word I say to you

Swept from the floor underneath the rug



Oh it's like we'll never clean it up

it's like we'll never clean it up!

It's like we'll, never..clean it up!



Oh, I know it's hard

Oh, but lover, I don't know just where you are

I've been trying to find ways to find your lover's heart

End up with your cold shoulder, uh oh

Oh I am not crumbling

Though I thought that I might from what it's done to me

It might never be the way we thought it ought to be

Lovers never sleep alone, uh oh



And you sleep alone

And you sleep alone

And you sleep alone

'Cause you sleep alone!



Oh, I know it's hard

Oh, but lover, I don't know just where you are

I've been trying to find ways to find your lover's heart

End up with your cold shoulder, uh oh

Oh I am not crumbling

Though I thought that I might from what it's done to me

It might never be the way we thought it ought to be

Lovers never sleep alone, uh oh
