[Intro]

[Verse]
Am G
Dig if you will the picture
Am
Of you and I engaged in a kiss
G
The sweat of your body covers me
Em
Can you my darling, can you picture this?
Am G
Dream if you will a courtyard
Am
An ocean of violets in bloom
G
Animals strike curious poses
Em
They feel the heat, the heat between me and you
[Chorus]
Am G
How can you just leave me standing
Am
Alone in a world that's so cold?
G
Maybe I'm just too demanding
Em
Maybe I'm just like my father, too bold
Am G
Maybe I'm just like my mother
Am
She's never satisfied
G
Why do we scream at each other
Em
This is what it sounds like when doves cry
[Riff]

[Verse]
Am G
Touch if you will my stomach
Am
Feel how it trembles inside
G
You've got the butterflies all tied up
Don't make me chase you
Em
Even doves have
[Chorus]
Am G
How can you just leave me standing
Am
Alone in a world that's so cold?
G
Maybe I'm just too demanding
Em
Maybe I'm just like my father, too bold
Am G
Maybe I'm just like my mother
Am
She's never satisfied
G
Why do we scream at each other
Em
This is what it sounds like when doves cry
