Scritti Politti Oh Patti (don't Feel Sorry For Loverboy)
I had a dream of us together in a world where we knew
what was true
Oh, Patti, don't lead the life that I left you with
It's been such a long time and I know
We tried together to discover why we failed the test of
our time
Oh, Patti, don't lead the life that they made for you
I'll be gone a long while and you'll know
Chorus:
And don't feel sorry for loverboy
You know he wants the world to love him
And then he goes and spoils it all
Don't feel sorry for loverboy
He wants the world to love him
Then he goes and spoils it all for love
There's no-one out here you can listen to and certainly
never yourself
Oh, Patti, don't lead the life that I left you with
Listen to the cars call in the rain
I got so tired of concluding that there's nothing for
us to conclude
Oh, Patti, don't look for certainty in your life
I've gone where a lost cause can be found
(Chorus)
All for love, little girl
All for love, little girl, for love
[Instrumental break]
And don't feel sorry for lover boy
You know he wants the world to love him
And then he goes and spoils it all
Don't feel sorry for lover boy
He wants the world to love him
Don't feel sorry for lover boy
He wants the world to love him
Oh and...
(Chorus)
