Soft Enough for You Lyrics by The Teardrop Explodes

Everybody Wants to Shag...

1983

You said "I need...", but you didn't finish
Didn't wear the cordage of the love affair
But now I kick my mind out in the wind and driving rain
And woos become the hero like a herald father Seine
Cats paws tore confusion in the main mast
Idiot sailor keelhauled as a stowaway
Depth charge souls thrown overboard, as lovers mark my words
Now in frantic reasoning, I question what I heard
I couldn't light a fire in my hair with that
And I'm changing, changing, changing
Changing, changing, changing
Changing, changing, changing
Soft enough for you
Changing, changing, changing
Changing, changing, changing
Soft enough for you
Soft enough for you
I'll never be
Never, never, never be
Soft enough for you
Soft enough for you
I'll never, never be
I'll never, never be
Soft enough for you
Soft enough for you
I said I have a light
Like white polished steel
Steal, steal, steal away my love, it breaks my heart
Now inside my city, streets carpeted with wet
Children maimed in love enlist and wrestled in my head
Burning seems formality
I'm changing, changing (changing)
Changing, changing, changing (changing)
Changing, changing, changing
Soft enough for you
Oh, I could never be
Oh, never, never be
Soft enough for you
Soft enough for you
Oh, never, never
Oh, never, never, never been
Soft enough for you
Soft enough for you
I could never, never be
Oh, never, never be
Soft enough for you
Soft enough for you
Never be soft enough
Never be soft enough for you
(Changing)
