From Step Inside
A temperamental ex stops and asks her why
But one cannot expect a true reply
Somehow love's picture hangs imperfect
And hand on heart we learn the score
The lovers and their wars
And wondering what's meant to be

For hope will spring eternal
When love's got you on your knees
Oh-oh shalalala woman
Shalalala man

repeat]
Always and much more

Her body makes an "s", today they made a "c"
He sleepless needing her, he dogs her dreams
Then he wakes up on her doorstep
Then he wakes up on his floor
More drunker than before
She wouldn't open up to him

But hope will spring eternal
Through a multitude of sins
Oh-oh shalalala woman
Shalalala man

repeat]
Always, always, always

But hope will spring eternal
When love's got you on your knees
Shalalala woman
Shalalala man

repeat]
Always and for ever more
