I know it's impossible
It's highly improbable
But still I go on dreaming what I am dreaming
Just wanna stay here a little longer
And bask in your bright rays
Your twilight's last gleaming
When will I get it through my thick head
You're never gonna live up to my ideal
Yeah when will I get it through my thick head
You're never gonna feel what I feel
It's all just a fantasy
And it's gone on too long
And I feel your sense of frustration
"When's gonna give this up
When's he gonna let it be
It's all some kind of mental masturbation"
You're never gonna love me
Yeah I know that much to be true
You're never gonna love me
And it's left me all black and blue
I know I'm ridiculous
A truly silly man
To think that I could find a place in your heart
But I can't stop trying
I am driven like the wind
That's blowing the whole wide world apart
