In the colour of the green lights We used to be like children We've taken a lot of turns, girl Still I wish I wasn't late And it always something And it's time you done something right And it's always something And I can take your lovin' And I can take your love And I can take your lovin' And I can take your love Patterned on the principle you meet the people on the plane You were strong once now you tend to fall down again But kings they are no longer and officials are not the same But wouldn't you rather not hate those things they do But our windows were oceans and our houses were planets And our doors were open and our language Hispanic And they take and take and take and take and take And you hold the option open and you're giving it some love tonight And I can take your lovin' And I can take your love And I can take your lovin' And I can take your love
