She was looking for a
big time
he was looking for any time at all
she was just jumping at the first chance
he was just trying not to fall
And the candlelight in her eyes as she lies
I'll always be true to you my love
and the candlelight in her face as she breaks down
again and cries in his arms
Chorus
Dream, dream, dream of being happy or halfway sane
we can dream, dream but you'll always be the little bullet
in my brain
She drinks enough to have a good time
he drinks enough to keep him mad
she likes to keep her contacts physical
he'd like to think that's not too bad
And the candlelight...
(Chorus)
Sometimes he thinks he'll make a breakthrough
and they'll stop the make-believe
he'd ask her does that make any sense to you
he swears he never heard her leave
and the candlelight...
(Chorus)
