The Romantic 
Sing
      Sing
            Sing, let the lies begin
imaginary memories to draw me in
drown my dissapointment
in a sea of sighs
my heart will be racing like a
                                           wave
                                                    under
                                                              ice
Let him fall
This Romantic
Let him fall
And don’t deny the tragic, magic hour
to us all
Hold
     On
        Tight to the ifs and mights
dream a better ending keep me up all night
rail against the obvious thats telling me ‘no’
the drama and the poetry won’t
                                             let
                                                  me
                                                       go
Let him fall
Let him fall
Let him fall
All these accidents
Defying common sense
it’s just what I do best
and you know me I cannot tell a lie…
Sing
     Sing
          Again I’ll believe and then
walk away and tell me that’s not what you meant
I can fill the silences with perfect words
and honestly I couldn’t change me for the world
Let him fall
this Romantic
Let him fall
And don’t deny the tragic, magic hour
to us all
