"Lovers In Captivity" lyrics

"Lovers In Captivity"

Oh babe
The intoxication
Is gone
We got
Morals
But there's no consolation
Where we go
We got
Car crash
Contemplations
And that's wrong
We got
Wrought iron
Aggravations

In this home
We're lovers in captivity
Yes I have her and she has me
Won't you like to come and see the place that we call home?
We're lovers in captivity
We're dying from eternity
Hurry up to come and see the lovely couple moan

Do you remember when?
Our sweet
Desperation
Was strong
There were hours of
Pure sin
Operation
Uh hu
We never had
Much luck
With all the conversation
Uh uh
But girl now
Think it's time
We talk emancipation
From this home

We're lovers in captivity

We're dying from eternity
Won't you like to come and see the place that we call home?
We're lovers in captivity
We're comfortable with enmity
Hurry up to come and see the lovely couple moan
We're lovers in captivity
Yes I have her and she has me
Won't you like to come and see our model bungalow
We're lovers in captivity
We're dying from eternity
Bring your kids to come and see
This lovely couple moan

Well, it's been fun
Hahaha
I'm only laughing cause I'm nervous
But I do have to say this
Ahem
Bye baby bye bye
I'm going free
Bye baby bye bye
Love has got to be free
Bye baby bye bye
I'm going free
Bye baby bye bye
Love has got to be free
Bye baby bye bye
I'm going free
Bye baby bye bye
Love has got to be free
Bye baby bye bye
I'm going free
Bye baby bye bye
Love has got to be free

Just called to say
Just called to say
Love you for the rest of my life
It's cold in space
So won't you stay?
I'll always be a lover in captivity
