lyrics

The cold light of day is hurting my face
‘Cos I woke up today out of the race
I’ll be drifting for now
Caught in a world between

I gave her my heart, she threw it away
And I knew from the start, I led her astray
And I dreamt that I kept
A lock of her golden hair

And I’ve been living in a dream
And the world’s a distant memory
And I know I’ll never be free
In reality

Been chasing the walls and climbing my tail
I’ve arrested my thoughts and put them in jail
Going out of my mind
I needed to breathe some air

She went for a walk and never came home
Said there’s no turning back wherever she roams
And the stars in the sky shine in her crazy eyes

And I’ve been living in a dream
And the world’s a distant memory
And I know I’ll never be free
In reality

It’s almost October
(The kiss she gave me fell from the trees)
It’s getting colder
(Her love is setting sail on the breeze)
And she’ll never see
What she’s doing to me
In reality
