Oh you lonesome dreamer Wandering down the memory lane, Yearning in vain So convinced that yesterday's always sweeter You're lost in the past So let me get you through The deceiving layers of time Let me wake you from your illusions to see That there's nothing to fear Release yourself Precious moments passing by Thirty frames a second Funny how we get stuck in the past Memories sweet and gilded Preventing us from seeing The present day Oh sweet confuser Wish you could leave the burden behind It's tearing you apart And thoughts are running in vicious circles You're lost in the past So let me help you out Distraction is clouding your way Let me wake you from your illusions to see That there's nothing to fear Release yourself Precious moments flying by While we're recollecting Wondering why we get stuck in the past Always contemplating Instead of daring to face the day Let me help you out Let me show you the way Let me help you out To dare to face the day Release yourself Precious moments passing by Thirty fbames a second Funny how we get stuck in the past Always contemplating Precious moments flying by While we're recollecting Wondering why we get stuck in the past Instead of daring to face the day Precious moments passing by
