Wings of a Dove
Madness Lyrics


Take time for your pleasure
and laugh with love
take the hand of another
and sing for the wings of a dove

Whoa whoa for the wings of a dove (x2)

Look up at the rooftops
when you're walking round
don't think for a moment
of looking down

Whoa whoa yeah yeah yeah
for the wings of a dove
whoa whoa for the wings of a dove (x3)

Hallelujah Hallelujah

Look up at the rooftops
When you're walking round
don't think for a moment
of looking down

A room at the top
where we're not allowed
don't cheer to the echo
can you hear the sound

Whoa whoa yeah yeah yeah
for the wings of a dove
Whoa whoa yeah yeah yeah
for the wings of a dove

whoa whoa for the wings of a dove (x2)

yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah (x3)
Whoa whoa for the wings of a dove (x4)
