Rachel

(Stephen Duffy)

Be my liberty

Be my fact and fantasy

Make love while you can

Has there been a better plan?

Well I could go on

But I just don't know

I had to fall a little

Crawl a little

Do it in the hall a little

Rachel

I kissed your lips

I lifted up my voice

I had to weep a little

Creep a little

Do it in the street a little

Rachel

Fire down below

Tell me where do kisses go

Fire the glamour guns

The junky girls have junky sons

I'm a gangster priest

But I fell in love

I had to fall a little

Crawl a little

Do it in the hall a little

Rachel

I kissed your lips

I lifted up my voice

I had to weep a little

Creep a little

Do it in the street a little

Rachel

Everything is great I don't know what to do

Don't know what to wear

Or who to make love to

Have you seen those films

Where they look like us?

Without such grace perhaps

And with too much fuss

Singing "where were you in ‘82

When there were great new drugs to do?"

And where are those that voted for

The end of all that we fought for?

Be my liberty

Be my fact and fantasy

Make love while you can

Has there been a better plan?

Well I could go on

But I just don't know

I had to fall a little

Crawl a little

Do it in the hall a little

Rachel

And I kissed your lips

I lifted up my voice

I had to weep a little

Creep a little

Do it in the street a little

Rachel

Rachel, Rachel, Rachel, Rachel, Rachel, Rachel

Rachel, Rachel, Rachel, Rachel, Rachel
