Imagination (Is A Powerful Deceiver)
So you're trying to make connection
You heard whispers in the hall
She'll be out again this evening
When you come around to call
So, you dodge the lady killer
Who came creepin' 'cross the floor
Then you caught up in a whirlwind
You got blown right out the door
Oh yes, it was a whirlwind
Sweet romance was on your side
If you wanna dance on my face
You must tell me why you lied
Imagination is a powerful deceiver
When you try to believe her just a little too much
Imagination is a powerful deceiver
I'll go out of my mind if I'm losing your touch
I see the look of recognition
So well hidden in your eye
And your peep-show regulations
They just don't seem to apply
Did I see you in the circus
In the ring without a hand?
Now you think that you can curse us
Steal the show and stop the band
Oh, you can follow your dreams
Oh, but please don't lead me on
If you wanna bleed in my face
You were here, and now you're gone
Imagination is a powerful deceiver
When you try to believe her just a little too much
Imagination is a powerful deceiver
I'll go out of my mind if I'm losing your touch
I'll go out of my mind if I'm losing your touch
I'll go out of my mind If I'm losing your touch
(At last!)
