Jive - Michael Franks

After you hurt me

After I hurt you

And all of my bad dreams

One by one, came true

You said it was goodbye

But the eyes never lie

And I knew

That it was only Jive

So you found a new lover to wear your crown

And I found a cheap flat up in Chinatown

I saw you with stoned stars

In chic bars, downtown malls

But I knew that is was only jive

You cut me loose, I hit the juice

Somebody deep inside me died

Who punched that tune

Who hit the moon?

Who made the dime store gypsy lie?

You ain’t got no love, Jones

Not for me, not much

Then how come the sparks fly

Every time we touch

The meaning becomes clear

Every time you are near

Baby, it’s only Jive

Baby, it’s only Jive

Baby, it’s only Jive
