lyrics

The Bicycle Thieves

The bicycle thieves are coming into town
The bicycle thieves are coming …
and they want you around
They can’t hurt you … or desert you …
they just want your love
They won’t fool you … push or pull you …
they just want to steal your heart
And ride away … before you turn …
and realise
They’ve been alone so long
La la la … la la

The bicycle thieves are riding into view
The bicycle thieves are riding
They’re looking out for you
They can’t catch you … or distract you …
they just want your life
They won’t cheer you, nothing to fear as …
they just want to steal your bike
And ride away … before you turn …
and realise
They’ve been alone so long
La la la … la la
