A twist in the tale

As you watch from your house on the hill
world keeps spinning around you you're standing still
and a thought rivers enters your mind
something happened once in my life
a fading picture of you that's so hard to describe
i've been where the sun never shines
that's alright there's a change in the story
that's alright there's a change in the plan
a twist in the tale
face in the mirror head in the clouds
hanging on to a dream that you can't do without
as it drops like a stone without trace
give what you want take what you need
squeezing so hard there's no room to breathe
and your flavour has fallen from grace
that's alright there's a change in the story
that's alright there's a change in the plan
a twist in the tale
i saw you dancing
dancing on air
you were lost in the in the starlight
no one but me really cared
every question turns out a lie
can't you swallow the truth for once in your life
i loved you but don't ask me why
it's alright there's a change in the story
it's alright there's a change in the plan
a twist in the tale
