Kid Creole and The Coconuts
The Love We Have
[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Once you took me up to the stars
You filled me with your "Ooh's" and your "Aahh's"
You did a number on my brain
Now you're pulling me down and down
I'd say you're trying to put me under the ground
You're like a wind-blown weather vane

[Chorus]
I know that the love that we have
Is as close as the sea and the sand
It's far from good, it's far from bad

[Verse 2]
You've got me on my "P's" and my "Q's"
Checking every little word that I use
My heart is slipping to my toes
Then you give me sugar and cream
And you soothe me like a beautiful dream
You're like a faucet, hot and cold

[Chorus]
I know that the love that we have
Is as close as the sea and the sand
It's far from good, it's far from bad
[Bridge]
No, I'm not complaining, just contemplating
Don't get me wrong, now, poor vision
I think that the season is perfect for teasin'
But what is your reason for indecision? (Indecision)
Indecision (Indecision)

[Verse 3]
Maybe things'll turn out okay
Lately
You treat me in a loveable way
I hope the weather doesn't change
Suddenly your love disappears
And you trade in your laughter for tears
You're like a picnic in the rain

[Chorus]
I know that the love that we have
Is as close as the sea and the sand
It's far from good, it's far from bad
I know that the love that we have
Is as close as the sea and the sand
It's far from good, it's far from bad
