The lovers that never were (Paul Mccartney)

Off the ground (1993)

I have always needed somebody girl,
But I close the doors to keep out the world.
But for you, I would be here all alone,
Locked in a photograph.
All of the clocks have run down.
Lover beware.
Well be the lovers that never were.

I hang patiently on every word you send.
Will we ever be much more than just friends?
As for you, you sit there playing this game,
You keep me waiting
When all of the clocks have run down,
All over the world.
Well be the lovers that never were.

For as long as the sun shines in somebodys eyes,
I believe in you baby, so dont tell me lies.
For as long as the trees throw down blossoms and leaves,
I know there will be a parade of unpainted dreams.

And I know dear, how much its going to hurt
If you still refuse to get your hands dirty.
So you, you must tell me something,...i love you,
Say goodbye or anything.
All of the clocks have run down.
Times at an end.
If we cant be lovers well never be friends.

For as long as the sun shines in somebodys eyes,
I believe in you baby, so dont tell me lies.
For as long as the trees throw down blossoms and leaves,
I know there will be a parade of unpainted dreams.

Muchas gracias por esta sua escolha musical, Jesus! O Paul estava mais do que inspirado quando compôs esta canção, é linda demais mesmo!

I wonder how Paul has written song about my situation, 18 year before it had happened. Tears from my eyes because it describes exactly my state. And I can easily sing this song and dream about the one I love.

Yep. Doesn't make any difference what one says, though. He's locked in a photograph in his own mind.
