Lover Be Kindly

[Verse 1]
I walk in a gutter love, all up and down
Little drop of water's all it takes to bring me down
I might not be here next time you look around
So be kind to the swallow hovering at your brow
If my enemies don't get me, my friends'll know how

[Chorus]
Hey love, be kind
I'm too old to die and I'm too young to cry
Love love love love
Lover be kind

[Verse 2]
Why'd you give me your feelings if you didn't want the same?
Forgive me if I'm feeble but I'm rather new at your game
Now you ask for my number to call to play
You'll have to buy me a phone, write down the number babe
I won't be responsible for letting you in again

[Chorus]
Hey love, be kind
I'm too old to die and I'm too young to cry
Love love love love love
Lover be kind

[Verse 3]
Is this a joke for the insane? You call and you ask how I'm
I put my bubblegum away, I changed to a rhyme
I've got my bell around my neck in case I go blind
Don't worry I'll get my head out from your twine
If you'll please get your cut throat off of my knife

[Chorus]
Hey love, be kind
I'm too old to die and I'm too young to cry
Love love love, lover
Lover be kind
Hey but love love love love
Please don't be mine
