Lyrics

Too late, the melody is over

The joke seems to be on me cos I'm the one not laughing Down here on the floor

Deflate, the mystery of living In the most heartless fashion I could ever Imagine No pretense of decor

Another place and time, without a great divide And we could be flying deadly high I'll sell my soul to dream you wide awake

Another place and time, without a warning sign And we could be dying angel style I'll sell my soul to dream you wide awake

I'll dream you... wide awake

With me, disaster finds a playfield Love seems to draw dark, twisted pleasure tearing at me Cos I can't let you go

Mercy, like water in a desert Shine through my memory like jewelry in the sun Where are you now

Another place and time...

I'll dream you... wide awake

It's like I'm racing to the sun, blindly face the blazing gun Cos I'm afraid I will be left here without you Like I'm racing not to run, give more when I have none Cos I'm afraid I will be left here without you... wide awake

Another place and time...

I'll dream you... wide awake
