BONNIE TYLER - Loving You's A Dirty Job But Somebody's Got To Do It lyrics

[Girl:] When the sky is falling and you're looking round for somewhere to hide

Did you ever call out to someone

Did you ever call out to me, I've never been gone-

I've been right here by your side

There ain't nothin' but clouds

There ain't nothin' but clouds in your eyes

Why don't you believe it when you finally found the truth

You've been drinking poison water from the fountain of youth

Why don't you stop tearing up everyone you need the most

You're so busy trying to get even

You never even try to get close

I can't explain it away

It doesn't make any sense

To know what it's like

I guess you gotta go through it

It doesn't matter baby

Loving you's a dirty job

But somebody's gotta do it

[Boy:] There were times when we'd never fake it

There were times when we'd always make it

There were times when we'd take it to the limit

And we'd never, never, ever leave each other alone

We wee flesh and blood and bone

There were times we had it all

There were times we had it all

[Both alt:] There were times when we took our chances

There were times we were damn good dancers

There were times when we heard all the answers

In the beating of the drummer and the riches of the rock and the roll

I can see right through your soul

There were times we had it all

There were times we had it all

[Boy:] If your fears could only be forgotten

We could pull all the barriers down

Would you follow your dream's desire

Would you follow your secret dreams and forbidden fire

Let's just peel out of this town

[Both:] It's been nothing but dreams

It's been nothing but dreams until now

[Boy:] You're never gonna see it

[Both:] You got your head stuck in the sand

[Boy:] It's the land of the free and easy street

[Girl:] It's the home of the damned

[Boy:] You're never gonna see it

[Both:] You better open up your eyes

[Girl:] You're the only one who's left

[Both:] Who's gonna believe all your lies

[Boy:] I can't explain it away

It doesn't make any sense

[Both:] To know what it's like

I guess you gotta go through it

It doesn't matter baby

[Girl:] Loving you's a dirty job

But somebody's gotta do it

[Boy:] There were times when our bodies glistened

There were times that we can't stop missing

There were times that we'd lay in bed and listen

[Both:] To the pounding, pounding chorus of our desperate hearts

Nothing could have torn us apart

There were times we had it all

There were times we had it all

[Girl:] There were times when we fought like tigers

There were times we were damn good liars

[Boy:] There were times we extinguished every fire

[Both:] That was burning, burning, burning, up each other alive

From the heavens on down to the dives

There were times we lost it all

There were times we lost it all

There were times when we fought like tigers

There were times we were damn good liars

[Both:] There were times when our bodies glistened

There were times that we can't stop missing

There were times that we'd lay in bed and listen

To the pounding, pounding, chorus of our desperate hearts

Nothing could have torn us apart

There were times we had it all

There were times we had it all
