lyrics
So much style and a wanderlust,
We quit the real world 'cause dreaming's what made us,
Your dulcet tones, your flesh and bones,
a poetic turn of phrase,
I'm your toy, you've got me in a daze.
Drinking ruby red, laying on my bed,
Switch off the TV and do someone better instead,
Let's go to that place and I'll give you a taste,
Of what's going on inside my head,
Come and walk where angels fear to tread.
We have had the best of times in my mind.
She told me that my mind is a palace,
I said 'why don't you come on in?
Because the brain police aren't welcome here,
In my gilded palace of sin,
So, come and let's get soaked in gin'.
We have had the best of times in my mind.
Everywhere I look I can see her smiling,
in the corner of my mind's eye,
I love her nightly, she owns my psyche,
And we still live in a dream,
Well I guess it's all part of the scheme.
Drinking ruby red, laying on my bed,
Switch off the TV and do someone better instead,
Let's go to that place and I'll give you a taste,
Of what's going on inside my head,
Come and walk where angels fear to tread.
We have had the best of times in my mind.
