Soft Enough For You - The Teardrop Explodes, Ross Cullum, Christopher Merrick Hughes

You said «I need…», but you didn’t finish

Didn’t wear the cordage of the love affair

But now I kick my mind out in the wind and driving rain

And woos become the hero like a herald father Seine

Cats paws tore confusion in the main mast

Idiot sailor keelhauled as a stowaway

Depth charge souls thrown overboard, as lovers mark my words

Now in frantic reasoning, I question what I heard

I couldn’t light a fire in my hair with that

And I’m changing, changing, changing

Changing, changing, changing

Changing, changing, changing

Soft enough for you

Changing, changing, changing

Changing, changing, changing

Soft enough for you

Soft enough for you

I’ll never be

Never, never, never be

Soft enough for you

Soft enough for you

I’ll never, never be

I’ll never, never be

Soft enough for you

Soft enough for you

I said I have a light

Like white polished steel

Steal, steal, steal away my love, it breaks my heart

Now inside my city, streets carpeted with wet

Children maimed in love enlist and wrestled in my head

Burning seems formality

I’m changing, changing (changing)

Changing, changing, changing (changing)

Changing, changing, changing

Soft enough for you

Oh, I could never be

Oh, never, never be

Soft enough for you

Soft enough for you

Oh, never, never

Oh, never, never, never been

Soft enough for you

Soft enough for you

I could never, never be

Oh, never, never be

Soft enough for you

Soft enough for you

Never be soft enough

Never be soft enough for you

(Changing)
