  • Somebody told me just the other day
    That you're leaving me, we're through
    Well if you knew how it hurt me so
    Then you'd change your mind, I'm sure

    Don't want to hear what's going on
    I don't care what's new
    Don't want to know about anything
    'Cause all I want is you

    Going out with other girls
    Was always such a bore
    But since I fell in love with you
    I need you more and more

    Don't want to know about one night stands
    Cut price souvenirs
    All I want is the real thing
    And a night that lasts for years

    If you ever change your mind
    I've a certain cure
    An old refrain, it lingers on
    L'amour, toujours L'amour

    Don't want to learn about etiquette
    From glossy magazines
    Why should I try to talk correct
    Like they do in another scenes

    Say no more about imagery
    You're starting to confuse
    Just make an offer of more romance
    Of course I can't refuse

    All I want is you
    I'm all cracked up on you Writer/s: BRYAN FERRY
