Songs About People: Love

The latest in a much-loved series (by me) is dedicated to former Australian cricket player Martin Love.

(With apologies, again, to David Bowie)

I catch a paper boy

But things don't really change
I'm standing in the wind
But I never wave bye-bye
But I try, I try
There's no sign of life
It's just the power to charm
I'm lying in the rain
But I never wave bye-bye
But I try, I try
Never gonna fall for

Martin Love - walks beside me
Martin Love - walks on by
Martin Love - gets me to the church on time
Church on time - terrifies me
Church on time - makes me party
Church on time - puts my trust in god and man
God and man - no confessions
God and man - no religion
God and man - don't believe in Martin Love

It's not really work
It's just the power to charm
I'm still standing in the wind
But I never wave bye bye
But I try, I try

Martin Love - walks beside me
Martin Love - walks on by
Martin Love - gets me to the church on time
Church on time - terrifies me
Church on time - makes me party
Church on time - puts my trust in god and man
God and man - no confessions
God and man - no religion
God and man - don't believe in Martin Love

Martin Love - Martin Love (x12)
Martin Love - Martin Love, walks beside me
Martin Love - Martinn love, walks on by
