Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It was pretty bright, up on the rainbow bridge tonight
I could see into your window, although you're far away
You were racing in a car, beside a boy, you just don't know
[Verse 2]
If he is up for, what you have in mind
If he is up for, what you have in mind
[Verse 3]
Change is on the cards, but this time it will be hard
I never want to leave you, we've never had a fight
You should never split a pole, you should never split at all
I wish I had two, paths I could follow
I'd write the ending, without any sorrow
[Verse 4]
I will say a prayer, just while you are sitting there
And I will wrap my arms around you, 'cause I know it will be fine
We've got a fantasy affair, we didn't get wet, we didn't dare
Our aspirations, are wrapped up in books
Our inclinations, are hidden in looks
[Verse 5]
Summer's hastening on (Summer's hastening on)
I'm tryna get a feeling from (Get a feeling)
The city, but I've been unfaithful (But I've been unfaithful)
I've been traveling abroad
[Verse 6]
We've got a fantasy affair
We didn't get wet, we didn't dare
But the fantasy remains
You better come back to earth again
[Verse 7]
Our aspirations
Wrapped up in books
Our inclinations
Hidden in looks
