Love System
The Twins Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey boy in the corner there
You're keeping people at bay
The others dance, you sit and stare
It doesn't really have to stay that way
Take a chance and free yourself
Don't get left on the shelf

Hey girl on the dance floor
Don't get carried away
You're looking good, but are you sure
You look to good by the light of day
Take a chance and free yourself
Don't get left on the shelf

Love system, love system all have the chance
Love system, love system get up and dance
Love system, love system everyone's there
Love system, love system let down your hair

Love system, love system

Hey mother it can't be true
You're just not making sense
Now you're alone it won't help you
To sit alone on the garden fence
Take a chance and free yourself
Don't get left on the shelf

Love system, love system all have the chance
Love system, love system get up and dance
Love system, love system everyone's there
Love system, love system let down your hair

Love system, love system

Cause I know that there's a love system
It's a circus, it's a fate
If you're unhappy, trust the love system
Now is never too late

It's up you to change your way of life
Take a chance and free yourself
Don't get left on the shelf

Love system, love system
