LOVE ON YOUR SIDE
(Tom Bailey / Alannah Currie / Joe Leeway)

The Thompson Twins


I hear you laughing in some other room
and it makes me feel locked out.
You say my passion often stifles you and you need to move about.
Well
I was told that boys need girls and girls need boys
You say that's not true.
You would rather fool around than to be alone with me
Well that's alright for you.
'cause you've got love
love
love on your side
Yes
you've got love
love
love on your side
Yes
you've got love
love
love on your side
Yes
you've got love. love. love on your side.
I brought you sentimental roses
but you gave them all away.
I played you all my favourite records
Then we spent the night in talking
talking all the time
You sent me home.
I was so surprised to find that after all it doesn't hurt to be alone.
'cause you've got love
love
love on your side
. . .
Well
all the things you say make perfect sense to me
But somehow I'm still unsure
But I catch myself going through the same old rhapsody
rap boy rap!
Well
I don't understand just what I'm doing to myself
I guess that's nothing new.
'cause when you meet someone who doesn't follow all the rules
It changes ev'rything you do.
'cause you've got love
love
love on your side
. . .
Yes
you've got love
love
love on your side
. . .
