I want surprises
Your sweet nature darling
Was too hard to swallow
I got the solution
I'm leaving tomorrow
And now as I stand
And stare into your eyes
I see safety there
I want surprises
What I really need to do
Is find myself a brand new lover
Somebody who lies with me
Who doesn't notice all the others
When you wake up tomorrow
You'll be all alone
All the love that we had
I have quickly outgrown
I wanted to stay
But I just couldn't do it
Couldn't stand there
And put you through it
My other loves will tell you
That I'm nothing but a pleasure seeker
And for once I really must agree
I need to leave you by yourself
And go in search of someone else
To satisfy my curiosity
Your sweet nature darling
Was too hard to swallow
I made my decision I'm leaving tomorrow
Your sweet nature darling
Was too hard to swallow
Your sweet nature darling
Was too hard to swallow
I got the solution
I'm leaving tomorrow
And now as I stand
And stare into your eyes
I see safety there
I want surprises
What I really need to do
Is find myself a brand new lover
Somebody who lies with me
Who doesn't notice all the others
When you wake up tomorrow
You'll be all alone
All the love that we had
I have quickly outgrown
I wanted to stay
But I just couldn't do it
Couldn't stand there
And put you through it
My other loves will tell you
That I'm nothing but a pleasure seeker
And for once I really must agree
I need to leave you by yourself
And go in search of someone else
To satisfy my curiosity
Your sweet nature darling
Was too hard to swallow
I made my decision I'm leaving tomorrow
Your sweet nature darling
Was too hard to swallow

Such a great dance track. Love the band. The lead singer was definitely before his time, which makes his music even more interesting. 80's music was the best for dance...just spirited and fun.
I featured this band on my blog today, along with three of its songs. (Sex Drive is my favorite, but it was far from the group's most popular.) S/he (and with the lead singer Paul it's sometimes difficult to tell:) wants fun and surprises, not yawns. S/he wants someone to lie beside her, not lie to her face. And s/he doesn't wish to swallow his "sweet nature," although that line doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the song....unless it means he's "sweet" with other women. FUN 80's band. Paul pre-dated Boy George in style/individuality, but Boy got all the attention...
