Hello old friend long time no see |
|
Except the sea between you and me |
|
And that's physical and that's impenetrable |
|
Left you laughing at the dreams that |
|
I told you |
|
Now I'm laughing at the dreams that they sold me |
|
It's such a shame, you had to join their nasty game [CHORUS 1:] |
|
You didn't hold on |
|
You didn't hold on |
|
You didn't hold on |
|
To a dream, |
|
Ain't it obscene |
|
The silence in your room is getting me down |
|
The thickly atmosphere descends upon the clown |
|
Who laughs no more, he broke the golden law [CHORUS 2:] |
|
He didn't hold on |
|
He didn't hold on |
|
He didn't hold on |
|
To the dream, |
|
Ain't it obscene |
|
The way they shake you, try to wake you |
|
Be a man now, be a woman now |
|
Try to shake you up, try to wake you up |
|
Be a grown up, be a sour puss |
|
Never mind my love, |
|
I'll leave this for you |
|
Don't bother calling me, maybe |
|
I'll call you, so |
|
Stay on the scene |
|
And I'll stay chasing my dreams [CHORUS 1] [CHORUS 2] |
