The Lovers (Extended Version)
[Intro]
The lovers
The lovers
The lovers
The lovers
Ooh, yeah
The lovers
The lovers
It seems the lovers win every time
You must hold on to the love that you find
In the world of mass confusion one thing I find
It seems the lovers win every time
[Verse 1]
You must abide by the Golden Rule
Do unto others as they do unto you
'Cause what goes around comes around, hear what I say
Why look tomorrow if it's here today?
[Chorus]
It seems the lovers win evеry time
You must hold on to the love that you find
In thе world of mass confusion one thing I find
It seems the lovers win every time
[Verse 2]
My love's getting stronger every day
I keep the feeling (The feeling) in the love we make
If you worry about your feelings, they'll be fine
'Cause I'm a lover, babe (The lover), I won't let you down
[Bridge]
So baby, don't let people interfere
Just come on and love me your way
'Cause there's nothin' better than to know
That you are a lover, 'cause the lovers...
The lovers win every time
Oh, I really wanna be your lover, girl
The lovers
I really wanna be your lover
[Chorus]
It seems the lovers win every time
You must hold on to the love that you find
In the world of mass confusion one thing I find
It seems the lovers win every time
[Bridge]
Oh, break it down
I really wanna be, I really wanna be
I really wanna be your lover
[Instrumental Break]
I really wanna be, I really wanna be
I really wanna be your lover
The lovers
I really wanna be, I really wanna be
I really wanna be your lover, girl
The lovers
[Instrumental Break]
In the world of mass confusion one thing I find
It seems the lovers win every time
Lost in confusion, oh girl (The lovers)
Oh baby, yeah (The lovers)

I really wanna be
I really wanna be your lover
(The lovers win every time)
(Wanna be your lover)
