Staring at the ceiling, just another worthless feeling
yes, the jokes on me
And nothing can compare to you, a picture fades and I go blue
I make believe
And I slip quietly, deeper
Into a favorite memory where I keep her
Wrapped up tight, and I believe that she wont get away
from me

I try to hold this feeling, I'm so desperate I am kneeling
Watching for a sign
At the altar of devotion facing each and every ocean
until the end of time
And I slip quietly, deeper
Into a favorite memory where I keep her
Wrapped up tight, and I believe that she wont get away
from me

I remember how you looked
Standing in the pouring rain
From the pages of a book
We would always be the same
You would be always running away from me
from me

Everything I promised you
And every night you pulled me through is all we need

I'm staring at the ceiling please don't wake me if I'm dreaming
Lying close to you
to you

We slip quietly, into a perfect memory
I get weaker but its alright
'cause I believe that she wont get away
yes, I believe that she wont get away
yes, I believe that she wont get away
from me
