They Are in Love — текст песни (David Byrne)

She put the scar on the side of his face

When he disappeared for three days

And they say that they are in love



He took her cocaine when she was asleep

Friends say he gave half away

And they say that they are in love



Run away, run away

Run away, before its too late



There is danger but they will not see

If theyre blind then its blind that theyd rather be



This towns destroyed more than one friend of mine

Funny, they never leave

They say that they are in love



Some say its rotten, some say its wrong

Some say its hard to believe

And some say that they are in love



Move away, move away

Move away before its too late



Then the lion sleeps with the lamb

Only love lets me forget who I really am



This land is small, its cold and its damp

Theres no place that Id rather be

I know that I am in love



Ethnic divisions, screaming demands

A little bit like you and me

I guess that we are in love



Stay away, stay away

Stay away, you might end up like me

Its the pain that keeps us alive

But that beauty is all that we need to survive

That damn beauty is all that we need to survive
