    You were once my one companion
    You were all that mattered
    You were once a friend and father
    Then my world was shattered

    I'm holding on your rope, got me ten feet of the ground
    And i'm hearing what you say but I just can't make a sound

    Tell me have you ever wanted someone so much it hurts
    Your lips keep trying to speak but you just can't find the words

    You're such a
    Hot temptation
    You just walk right in
    Walk, walk, walk right in

    Ambition and love wearing boxing gloves
    And singing hearts and flowers


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,831 ✭✭✭RobMc59


    It`s time we should talk about it
    There`s no secret kept in here


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,907 ✭✭✭trashcan


    Ambition and love wearing boxing gloves
    And singing hearts and flowers

    I always thought that line was " a vision of love wearing boxing gloves" Turns out I've been wrong all this time :o

    You`re lying again
    You say you don`t but then you do

    I was totally convinced it was a "a vision of love wearing boxing gloves" and i've been singing those lyrics for more than 30 years.

    She'll be ridin' six white horses when she comes

    Are you, are you, coming to the tree
    Where a dead man called out for his love to flee

    I actually was still convinced he'd got it wrong when I read it, so I went into YouTube. All the versions of the song with lyrics say "ambition and love" Just goes to show you. (I still think "a vision of love wearing boxing gloves" is a better lyric. Take note Roddy ! ;)

    He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
    But he talks like a gentlemen
    Like you imagined when....

    Electric faces seems to merge, hidden voices mock your words

    I'd really love to be alone without all the
    Ache and pain and the April showers

    Here we are now, entertain us
    A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido

    I always thought that lyric was

    Here we are now, entertainers.

    with that and the Prefab Sprout lyrics my whole life has been a lie.

    Who cast the final stone?
    Who threw the crushing blow?
    Someone has to take the fall
    Why not me?
