Lyrics
I'm just looking to live to learn how to live
Slowly starting to see it's me I will need to forgive
Cos it seems like I'm stuck here between
What I know and what I cannot know now
With too many choices of which way to go
Insight's a no show
I don't need a miracle, I'm much more predictable
I just need you to show me this life
And if you ain't too critical, we could be something beautiful
I just need you to show me this life
Take me home tonight
Just a fantasy away, your naked love laid next to me
My ecstasy
If I can't decide to opt for my choice
Does it mean I'm replacing, erasing your beautiful voice
So every time you would tell me a lie, I could happily take it
If all revelations would idly flow by, I wouldn't even fake it
I don't need a miracle...
Just a fantasy away...
I thought I'd see it for myself
But this life ain't, it ain't for me alone
And here I thought I could keep it for myself
But you can slice the light right off my sun
With your razorblade caress of love
I don't need a miracle...
Just a fantasy away...
