You're the girl of my dreams, no one else do I see. Lovely in sunlight and lovely in night, lovely in stillness and lovely in flight. You're the girl of my dreams, no one else do I see. Lovely in starlight and lovely when bright, lovely in stillness and lovely in flight. Melodramatica! Oh my foolish heart! where you lead me I will follow! (But she must never see my sorrow.)

celeste 03:04
Is it true? you see me. Running through the channels of your mind. I'll come through, just read me, If love is true then love is kind. Still unphazed, I'm sorry. If it was you turning pages If it was there then it was true, so true. I'll come back, if you need me, Love is such a shame. Don't you take my starlight, I don't know how to say to goodbye. As you leave I watch all The things I want to say drown in my eyes. You know, I love you. Don't go and turn this page yet, Right now it's only me and you, what should we do? Turn it back, fulfill this feeling Love can make the change. I call you and you turn round, We know that we have both found The answer to the words we hide, We can say them if we try.

rendezvous 00:49
You've got me all wound up, been thinking all day long, been singing old love songs, where'd my foolish heart go wrong? You've got my heart served up, it's on a silver plate, and girl I just can't wait to see you again.

sober 01:22
I can't be sober when you're on my shoulder can't think straight when you say you're coming over thought I'd outlast you why can't I get past you? One look and I'm not sober, I'm falling over all caught up with all these feelings hanging over no more pretending I just want your friendship, one look and I'm not—

Met a girl on Jupiter, but she's from Mars, she's a rose, born from stars. She's a punk, my little flower, destroys herself, she hurts herself to show her power. She has eyes so full of light, she makes me right, she makes me feel alone at night. Eve now so far away, this emptiness, this emptiness, can't be misplaced. I fill myself with hopes, and dreams, it's not far away, it seems. Cause I love you, cause I love you, No, You will never. But I love you, no, you will never. But I love you...

fairyland 03:05
All the folk of fairyland will miss you when you go, they'll think of how you used to dance in the morning glow, and all the flow'rs will sing a song, but you won't sing along, the ones you love in fairyland will seem far and gone. But in a peaceful dream or in the magic of a song, it seems, you can find little traces of fairyland, as you sigh to yourself, how you long for the days of faerie and dream. And all the folk of fairyland will long for your return, fairyland's just one dance away, you'll learn.
