I’ve Got a Lover (Back in Japan) Songtext
von Eurythmics

I've got a lover back in Japan
He's got tattoos, he's my Superman
I try to call him up from time to time
We can talk about the weather, "Is the weather fine?"

And I say, break break
Break away those ties
Break break

And I say, break break
Break away those ties
Break break

I've got a lover up in outer space
He's been tumblin' around all over the place
I like to call him from time to time
We can talk about Heaven

Break break
Break away those ties
Break break


Break break
Break away those ties
Break break

When the whole world descends
Only I'll be waiting for you

Got another lover in Timbuktu
Got a name for him, he's my Little Guru
When I don't call him, he starts to cry
I have to tell him stories just to pacify

And I say break break
Break away those ties
Break break

(Break break)
When the whole world descends on me
(Break break)
(Break break)
(Break break)
(Break break)


When the whole world descends on me
(Break break)
(Break break)
I'll be waiting for you
(Break break)

Break break
Break break
Break break
Break break

I was bitter when I met you
I was eloquent with rage
Like honey from a poisoned cup
I've flowed from stage to stage

I was bitter when I met you
I was eloquent with rage
Like honey from a poisoned cup
I flowed from stage to stage

I was eloquent with rage
Honey from a poisoned cup
I flowed from stage to stage

I was eloquent with rage
Honey from a poisoned cup
I flowed from stage to stage

I was bitter when I met you
I was eloquent with rage

Ooh, sugar baby, sing me a lullaby
Japanese baby
