I think I thought I needed you
But it might have been a lie
I think I thought you were the love of my life
You say you're a simple guy
I think the thought of you reeled me in
The dream you can't quite grasp
Yes, a very distant dream
That sweet as chocolate sin
It was probably the comfort you gave me
On a lonely evening
Probably the rejection, that made it a game
The kisses you gave were only teasing
You became my one and only
You were the centre of my world
My mind's slightly skewed reality
You made all of the stories in the world unfold
You gave me dreams you brought me hope
The stars, they sung to me
And you showed me them.
But reality reclaimed me
A sharp tug to my wrist
A screamed "WAKE UP!"
From another, turned life coach
Your dreams were a lie
Your hopes futile
For you can't change a man
You can't change his mind.
