They'd gone so far not getting any further Sticking right to the status quo She focused tight just like it was a movie Meeting people she'd need to know Stand by, the camera cries And then they change the set It's the best that they would get On her private telephone He'd call her late from home The part she played is what it came down to Tell me your fantasy And I'll tell you 'bout mine Tell me if it's the moon Or two glasses of wine How candelight shines Tell me who do you love When there's nobody there Tell me how it will be When there's nothing to share It's music lost to the air He tried too hard at telling her to wake up Lessons he thought she'd need to know A perfect face was putting on some make up Masking joy that she could not show Stand by, they said goodbye To all their fears and dreams Love is sometimes what it seems As she packed he was away The letter didn't say And fade to black now see what you want to Tell me your fantasy And I'll tell you 'bout mine Tell me if it's the moon Or two glasses of wine How candelight shines Tell me who do you love When there's nobody there Tell me how it will be When there's nothing to share There's happiness out there
