Up from the pastures of boredomnout from the sea of discontentnthey come in packs like hungry houndsnthe seekers of the dark enchantment.nnThey haunt the boulevards and barsnthey pray to wishing wells and starsnthey ride the hurricane of hopennot looking back but on they gontoward the distance and deceivingnand all the while they keep believingnthat they are special and apartnthe lovers, the lovers of the heart... the lovers.nnAnd when they pair off two by twonthey feel they are the chosen fewnand though their beds are made of strawnthey feel like velvet in the nightnand so the night is never endingnit�s made of distance and pretendingnbecause they�re special and apartnthe lovers, the lovers of the heart... the lovers.nnAnd when love goes awaynand when goes...ngoodbye...ncatches in their throats like cottonnrises in their hearts like rainnthe good times suddenly are all forgottennthe hunt begins again.nnThey search the subways and the streetsntheir faces tired, like their feetntheir bodies aching to be warmnand so they hide behind the moonntheir loneliness inside them growingnbut they take comfort in just knowingnthat they are special and apartnthe lovers, the lovers of the heart... the lovers.nnAnd when love comes againnand when love comesnhello...nrises from their throats like singingncatches in their hearts like windnthe good thingsnstrangers in their arms are bringingnmakes life all right again.nnThey turn their faces to the lightnno longer hiding in the nightnso unashamed and unafraidnthat they can face each other�s faultsnand though the waltz will have its endingnthere is no harm in just pretendingnthat they are special and apartnthe lovers, the lovers of the heart... the lovers.
