Secret ink, a vacant stare
She's got jewellery everywhere
Inhales Gitanes and other things
Lipstick stained, exhaled in rings
Things ain't quite the way they seem
She only visits me in dreams
Things ain't quite the way they seem
She only comes to me in dreams
Chaos how she wears her hair
Dances like there's no-one there
She's got a smile for everyone
And unlike me, she's so much fun
Things ain't quite the way they seem
She only visits me in dreams
Things ain't quite the way they seem
She only comes to me in dreams
She's the smartest one of all
But still knows how to have a ball
She's confident and way too bold
For one who's 22 years old
Things ain't quite the way they seem
She only visits me in dreams
Things ain't quite the way they seem
She only comes to me in dreams
There's a twinkle in her eye
Right before she waves goodbye
Daylight breaks into the night
Tears into my dream's delight
Every morning, snatched away
In my memory, she'll stay
The waking hours cannot find
All these different girls in mind
Things ain't quite the way they seem
She only comes to me in dreams
Things ain't quite the way they seem
She only visits me in dreams
Things ain't quite the way they seem
She only comes to me in dreams
