Pet Shop Boys - I Want a Lover Lyrics

Artist: Pet Shop Boys

Album: Please

  • Songwriters: Chris Lowe, Neil Tennant

At this time of night
When the crowds have passed
We're the last to leave
We need some company

No need to look so shy
Don't even wonder why
You know the reason
That we need this company

I've been sitting here
Looking out for you
Someone just like me
Who's maybe had a drink or two

I don't want another drink or fight
I want a lover
I don't care whether it's wrong or right
I want a lover tonight, tonight

Outside the dawn is breaking
Looks like it's started raining
We'll catch a cab
And soon be driving home

No need to look so shy
Don't even wonder why
You'll know the reason
Just as soon as we get home

You've been sitting there
Wondering what to do
I've been standing here
Waiting to make the first move

I don't want another drink or fight
I want a lover
I don't care whether it's wrong or right
I want a lover tonight

I don't want another drink or fight
I want a lover
I don't care whether it's wrong or right
I want a lover tonight
Tonight

This anticipation
Is a stimulation
No need for conversation
As we're driving home

Put your arms around me
It doesn't mean you love me
Just that you want me
And you need my company

Driving through the night
It's so exciting
Turning off the light
Without another thought tonight

I don't want another drink or fight
I want a lover
I don't care whether it's wrong or right
I want a lover tonight

I don't want another drink or fight
I want a lover
I don't care whether it's wrong or right
I want a lover tonight
Tonight
