lyrics

I waited all, I waited all
I waited all, I waited all year
just to get me where I'm at
and I know what they'll say to me
"it's just a dream, you really should move on!"
that I've been doing this for too long

I know this, I know all this
though I know this I linger with your kiss
and everything you've touched
stays with my reality
and this increasing insanity of mine
that I'm the only one for you
and you're the one for me..

it's a
foolish love
for a foolish heart

If I'd be yours and you'd be mine, but
you're in my mind, you're in another time
it is so bitter, it is so sweet
and we could never, ever be
anything else than in perfect symmetry

'cause in my mind there's all the time
that we could really ever need
it is a truly
bitter sweet harmony
this you, and this me that

stays in my reality
and this increasing insanity of mine
that I'm the only one for you and you're the one for me

it's a
foolish love
for a foolish heart

you are everywhere
you are the clothes I wear
you're my dream, my daily dream baby
will not shake this or brake this or try to awake from this

I waited all and did my best
to make sense what to make out of this mess
just to get me where I'm at
and I know what they say to me
"it's just a dream, you really should move on"
that I've been doing this for so long
that I've been doing this for so long
that I've been doing this for so long
