Lyrics
|
|
Somewhere out in the back of your mind (Somewhere)
|
Comes your real life and the life that you know
|
It seems like it was the creation of some of those same old things
|
It seemed to be the only thing left out in the light
|
She had trusted many...
|
But been unfamiliar with...
|
Almost everyone but you
|
|
Well maybe I'm just thinking that the rooms are all on fire
|
Everytime that you walk in the room
|
Well there is magic all around you, if I do say so myself...
|
I have known this much longer than I've known you
|
|
She had trusted many...
|
And then there would be someone who would enter into her presence
|
That she could sense for miles...
|
She dreamed of her wanton luxury
|
And she laughed and she cried...and she tried to taunt him
|
And he hated to be separated...
|
From that picture...No...
|
|
Well maybe I'm just thinking that the rooms are all on fire
|
Everytime that you walk in the room
|
Ooh, well there is magic all around you, if I do say so myself...
|
Well I have known this much longer than I've known you
|
|
Long nets of white cloud my memory...
|
Long nets of white cloud my memory...
|
Ooh...there is magic...all around you...
|
Everytime you walk in the room...
|
|
Well maybe I'm just thinking that the rooms are all on fire
|
Everytime that you walk in the room
|
Well there is magic all around you, if I do say so myself...
|
Well I have known this much longer than I've known you...
|
[Repeat]
