Lonely feeling, deep inside
Find a corner where I can hide
Silent footsteps crowding me
Sudden darkness, but I can see

No sugar tonight in my coffee
No sugar tonight in my tea
No sugar to stand beside me
No sugar to run with me
Da do da da da da do da da
Da do da da da do da da
Da do da da da da do da da
Da do da da

In the silence of her mind
Quiet movements where I can find
Grabbing for me with her eyes
Now I'm falling from her skies

No sugar tonight in my coffee
No sugar tonight in my tea
No sugar to stand beside me
No sugar to run with me
Da do da da da da do da da
Da do da da da do da da
Da do da da da da do da da
Da do da da

Jock says yes, and I believe him
When we talk about the things I say
She hasn't have the faith or the guts to leave him
When they're standing in each other's way
You're driven back not to places you've been to
You wonder what you're gonna find
You know you've been wrong but it won't be long
Before you leave 'em all far behind

'Cause it's the new mother nature taking over
It's the new splendid lady come to call
It's the new mother nature taking over
She's getting us all, she's getting us all

Jock said no when I came back last time
It's looking like I lost a friend
It's no use calling 'cause the sky is falling
And I'm getting pretty near the end
A smoke filled room in a corner basement
The situation must be right
A bag of goodies and a bottle of wine
We're gonna get it on right tonight

'Cause it's the new mother nature taking over
It's the new splendid lady come to call
It's the new mother nature taking over
She's getting us all, she's getting us all

Lonely feeling		Jock says yes and I believe him
Deep inside		When we talk about the things I say
Find a corner		She hasn't got the faith or the guts to leave him
Where I can hide		When they're standing in each other's way
Silent footsteps		You're driven back not to places you've been to
Crowding me		You wonder what you're gonna find
Sudden darkness		You know you've been wrong and it won't be long
But I can see		Before you leave 'em all far behind

'Cause it's the new mother nature taking over
It's the new splendid lady come to call
It's the new mother nature taking over
She's getting us all, she's getting us all

Da do da da da da do da da
