Love Station - Stephen Duffy

Meet me by the traffic lights

On Corporation Street

Changing, always changing

But only to repeat

The need to transcend

Defeat the need to pretend

Love is always cause for celebration

The other three dimensions let you down

There’s no need to leave the love station

You can take this trip in any town

Once you know the destination

There’s no need to leave the love station

If you can make it there

For mercy, pity, peace and love

Are all you need

Money, though we don’t have much

Will only buy you greed

It’s cheap to defeat

The vicious need to compete

You thought the doors of love

Had slammed on you

You pull the brocade curtains tightly to Turn up the sprouts

Let your mascara run

Forget yourself

And get some loving done
