Do You Love
I heard you say “the comfort,” and “keeps me off the street”
I overheard you on the phone.  I even heard you say “the heat.” 

Did you miss your connection, does passion prove a tired refrain? 
Do I ask too many questions, is there more than steam that drives this train?
 
Cause jumping and jiving isn’t living and thriving,
And passion and comfort doesn’t mean I don’t suffer, 
And isn’t it funny how your heart never skips a beat…

Do you love like I love? Do you stay like I stay?
Do you hope like I hope? Do you ache like I ache?

The horns that sound our afterglow, once filled every void,
But now the walls of Jericho, are getting just a bit annoyed,

You say you do for others, you say you do your best,
But do you overdo the girl, and maybe under do the rest,

I didn’t seem to notice just a little while ago,
That you cunningly avoided taking five or eating crow,
I never stopped to look into the well to see its depth,
I might’ve took the heat but I was just too out of breath…

But glossy confection standing in for affection
And this summer’s passion is yesterday’s fashion,
But send in the Prozac ‘cause this levee is starting to crack…. 

Do you love like I love? Do you stay like I stay?
Do you hope like I hope? Do you ache like I ache?

Cause jumping and jiving isn’t living and thriving,
And passion and comfort doesn’t mean I don’t suffer,
And isn’t it funny how your Heart never skips a beat…
 
Do you love like I love? Do you stay like I stay?
Do you hope like I hope? Do you ache like I ache?
