Long-Forgotten Fairytale

Someone told me you'd be here Whispering these familiar things Talking to my little pet, smoking the same old cigarettes I would have laughed I saw you last in summertime You said you hated long goodbyes You said, "There's nothing to explain, in every life a little rain" Etcetera And a long-forgotten fairytale is in your eyes again And I'm caught inside a dream world where the colors are too intense And nothing is making sense There's a floating town of ire down in a mist of mystery There's an old enchanted castle and the princess there is me Decked-out like a Christmas tree I guess you've had your little joke But I have lost my sense of humor My medication's wearing off, for it's just not strong enough To cover this Then you kissed me like before I found myself wanting more And you tell that little lie that kept me hypnotized Another kiss And a long-forgotten fairytale is in your eyes again And I'm caught inside a dream world where the colors are too intense And nothing is making sense There's a floating town of ire down in a mist of mystery There's an old enchanted castle and the princess there is me Decked-out like a Christmas tree If somebody told me I'd succumb If someone said I'd be so dumb After all the sleepless nights, when I turned on all the lights I would have hit them But I have turned the other cheek My voice trembles, my knees are weak And you beat me once again And I know what happens then You raise the ante And a long-forgotten fairytale is in your eyes again And I'm caught inside a dream world where the colors are too intense And nothing is making sense --- Long-Forgotten Fairytale - Magnetic Fields
