Текст пісні
You stay out of touch, just far enough
In case you ever need to retreat
Water and sand, you're out of my hands
The moment that you feel the heat
Caught in a vise, you're turning to ice
Your eyes are frozen on the door
Do you think that you'll find
Exactly what you're looking for?
Climbing up the ladder of lovers
Darling, you don't dream about me
This simple design may save you some time
Then where will you be?
Climbing up the ladder of lovers
Baby, don't pretend that you care
That new boy you've found
May take you uptown or maybe nowhere
I was so unprepared for the lure of your stare
You simply would not look away
With the boy at your side, you still could not hide
The game you were determined to play
I surrendered my soul when you said you controlled
My body, my heart, my mind
Tell me how many ways have you delivered that line
Climbing up the ladder of lovers
Darling, you don't dream about me
This simple design may save you some time
Then where will you be?
Climbing up the ladder of lovers
Baby, don't pretend that you care
That new boy you've found
May take you uptown or maybe nowhere
You set me up, you knocked me down
You could've had yourself a love on fire
Now nothing's left, just look around
It's getting colder as you go higher
Climbing up the ladder of lovers
Baby, don't pretend that you care
That new boy you've found
May take you uptown or maybe nowhere
Climbing up the ladder of lovers
Darling, you don't dream about me
This simple design may save you some time
Then where will you be?
Climbing up the ladder of lovers
Baby, don't pretend that you care
That new boy you've found
May take you uptown or maybe nowhere
