Pete Townshend - All Lovers Are Deranged lyrics

It takes a fool to phone a fool

When they both have said it all

We make the rule and bemoan the rule

That neither soul should call

But love that was is love that is

Demands to always be unchanged

But then all lovers are deranged.

We walk away with memories

And clutch them to our hearts

We disembodied entities

We love in fits and starts

For love like wine intoxicates

It drives all of you drink insane

But then all lovers are deranged.

You know that you don't really fall in love

Unless you're seventeen

Then break your word let your spirits fly

But you can't know what it means

Unless you're seventeen.

It takes a fight to start a fight, and differences remain

We have the right to think we're right, we're addicts feigning shame

For love recalled, is love reborn, we're determined to revive the pain

But then all lovers are deranged.

All lovers are deranged

It takes a fool to phone a fool

When they both have said it all

We make the rule bemoan the rule

That neither soul should call
