If Only For A Day
The daylight swept the sleep put of the eyes
Through which she peered
She turned off her alarm but left
The ringing in her ears
She looked across the room
And for a moment watched it changing
As the gloom was gently kissed by the sun, oh
It whispered to her "You are the one"
She's deafened by the silence
On the seven thirty train
Where all the pretty people helped
To make her feel so plain
She wonders will she ever be
The woman in her fantasies
A slave to all the roles she could play, oh
She closed her eyes and drifted away
On the sun drenched beach she lies
Her worshippers are teeming
She's much too hot for them to handle
She's so attractive to their eyes
Her tiny white bikini
Melts like a wax bead off a candle
Growing deep inside her
Is the love, she ties her dreams upon
All that's left beside her
Are the shadows that have been and gone
Oh, she's not the only one
No, this is not a game
The love inside remains
When fake comes out to play
She’ll blow them all away
She needs to hear three words
She wants to feel the way
She always dreamed was real
If only for a day
The sinister fears of eminent peers
Her innocent tears, irrelevant spheres
To change the scene, it's late at night
Admiring eyes are stealing
Through cameras trained open her window
She leaves the curtains open wide
Undresses slowly peeling
Each lacy layer from her body
Oh she needs attention
But won't mention it to anyone
Just one great adventure
Something real
To base her memories on
Oh, she's not the only one
No, this is not a game
The love inside remains
When fake comes out to play
She’ll blow them all away
She needs to hear three words
She wants to feel the way
She always dreamed was real
If only for a day
The sinister fears of eminent peers
Her innocent tears, irrelevant spheres
Tries the night clubbing life
Dancing, alive
Everyone's eyes upon this
Sight, her dress is so tight
And black as the night
Catching the light upon it
This Cinderella has no Prince at all
She can call
Dressing to kill having no one
To thrill at the ball
Goodbye plain
Goodbye pain
Goodbye anything that won't feel the same
No, this is not a game
The love inside remains
When fake comes out to play
She’ll blow them all away
She wants to hear three words
She wants to feel the way
She always dreamed was real
If only for a day
No, this is not a game
The love inside remains
When fake comes out to play
She’ll blow them all away
She needs to hear three words
She wants to feel the way
She always dreamed was real
If only for a day
She’s not the only one
Oh, not the only one
She’s not the only one
Not the only one
Exactly when she left the realms of
Sleep was never clear
To see the glowing colours of
Her dreams just disappear
And fade to all the shades of
Grey reality displayed
But now she knows
It‘s not as bad as it seems, oh
For out there is the man of her dreams
