We'll Make a Lover of You Songtext
von Les Savy Fav

They say, "Once you′ve found love
And it's rarer than gold.
You stake your claim-
It′s so hard to hold."
I say, "We've struck a vein
And it's wide as a road!"

Have we got love enough to go around?
Why don′t you get a piece and pass it down?
Even 100, 000, 000 years from now
The love we make will still be
Putting out.


We filled up our pockets
Till they would explode
And called the whole world here
So they could behold
The light of our love
Beats the dark and the cold.

I get the best of you,
You get the best of me.
You know I come to you
Across the broadest sea.
For just a speck of you,
I′d trade the whole of me.
I wish each peck from you
Would last eternity.

Where the skin's thin
And where the skin gathers.
When you′re moving in
And see it's all that matters.
Records left skipping,
Clothing all scattered,
A kiss in the kitchen,
The dishes all shattered.


We′ll make a lover of you.
