She’s the kind of love I’d never dream of
Dreams are never so fair
Side by side we sleep like teacups
Although we are not the same
She’s a woman trying to make her mark
And I won’t stand in her way
My lover says things I’ve never heard
In a strange and ravishing tone
She’s a vampire, warns me not to love her
Then directs me just where to kiss her
To be bolder, just how tight to hold her
I try to do all she says
There’s a car outside
She could leave tonight
Make a run for the future
The future
Her piano hands are strong
She plays, amazed with herself
How I long to sing along
With her and no one else
Love her more than anyone before
I’m here for her to betray
There’s a car outside
She could leave tonight
Make a run for the future
The future
