    Rod McKuen really knew how to write songs. Alex did a fantastic job with this cover..

    I feel like every cover AM has done has been better than the of. respect the original songs but Alex has such a soft natural voice that adds so much to these songs.

    "The Lovers"
    Up from the pastures of boredom
    out from the sea of discontent
    they come in packs like hungry hounds
    Up seekers of the dark enchantment.
    They haunt the boulevards and bars
    they pray to wishing wells and stars
    they ride the hurricane of hope
    not looking back but on they go
    toward the distance and deceiving
    and all the while they keep believing
    they are special and apart
    the lovers, the lovers of the heart... the lovers.
    And when they pair off two by two
    they feel they are the chosen few
    and though their beds are made of straw
    they feel like velvet in the night
    and so the night is never ending
    its made of distance and pretending
    coz they're special and apart
    the lovers, the lovers of the heart... the lovers.
    And when love goes away
    and when love goes...
    goodbye...
    catches in their throats like cotton
    rises in their hearts like rain
    the good times suddenly are all forgotten
    the hunt begins again.
    They search the subways and the streets
    their faces tired, like their feet
    their bodies aching to be warm
    and so they hide behind the moon
    their loneliness inside them growing
    but they take comfort in just knowing
    that they are special and apart
    the lovers, the lovers of the heart... the lovers
    And when love comes again
    and when love comes
    hello...
    rises from their throats like singing
    catches in their hearts like wind
    the good things
    strangers in their arms are bringing
    makes life all right again.
    They turn their faces to the light
    no longer hiding in the night
    so unashamed and unafraid
    that they can face each others faults
    and though the waltz will have its ending
    there is no harm in just pretending
    that they are special and apart
    the lovers, the lovers of the heart... the lovers.
