They're waiting to hate you
So give them an excuse
They say that
They changed you
But I know that can't be true

When I came in the entrance
The makeup girl went through
And I waited for ages
I waited there for you

Hats off to my distant hope
I'm held back by a velvet rope
He is behind us, the wall
The smoke machine's made between us
And if it does exist
If camera clicking green room guests swirl
Round thе man whose real and can be touchеd
Then I will do just that much

Hat's off, my distant hope
Hat's off, my distant hope
Hat's off, my distant hope

A ray of light, a puff smoke
(Hat's off, my distant hope)
The street tonight is so laughable
(Hat's off, my distant hope)
You'll be there and you'll see us
(Hat's off, my distant hope)
And I've got my ear against the screen
(Hat's off, my distant hope)
I feel your feelings
(Hat's off, my distant hope)
Crackling to nearly every inch of me
(Hat's off, my distant hope)
I'm gonna make you mean it
With every single cell of me
I'm gonna make you mean the words you sigh
