There's a loving in your eyes all the way
If I listen to your lies would you say
I'm a man without conviction
I'm a man who doesn't know
How to sell a contradiction
You come and go, you come and go

Karma karma karma karma, karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colours were like my dream
Red gold and green, red gold and green

Didn't hear your wicked everyday
And you used to be so sweet, I heard you
That my love was an
When we cling our love is
When you go you're forever
You string along, you string
