I know I’m livin’ in a dream but things are never what they seem
anyway
and once you thought you were sure, but it wasn’t her
I took a loan out on a heart, but now I’m sure it would’ve started
anyway
and you can smell it in the air, but I can only stare
I close my eyes, and then you’re there
I was unwise, no I didn’t care
I could have tried but it would have been a lie
because I want you all the time, there’s nothing in my way
and so I’m gonna say, hey I’m fond of you
and when I do, will the moon fall straight into the sea
and light it up for me - you were a fool
and when I do, won’t the moon turn out and let the night
surround me without light, so I can’t see what you do to me
and if by chance they’re only stars that seem so near, when they’re so far
and I come clean and you know just what I mean
