Well the lovers are here and they're full of sweat
And you want that
They're gonna take this sterile place and make it live

Well of course they smell a little
Did they just get off the train
Because they're lovers, yes they is
Well of course they smell a little
Didn't they just get off the train
Wasn't that them out there by the youth hostel
Crying in the rain?

Because they're the ones who laugh and cry
And they take so long when they say goodbye
Cause they're lovers, yes they is

The lovers are here and they're full of sweat
Laughing, crying, so upset
The lovers are here and they're full of sweat
That's how it goes
Gonna take this sterile place and make it live

Well they ain't no good in business
Maybe they gonna write you up a cheque
But they're lovers, yes they is
Well of course they smell a little
They didn't bring no change of clothes
Wasn't that them out there by the youth hostel
Out there in the snow?
Because they're the ones who laugh and cry
And they take so long when they say goodbye
Cause they're lovers, yes they is

The lovers are here and they're full of sweat
Laughing, crying, so upset

They'll take this dust ball
And the emotion they got
Puts feeling in the place
