Delightful Nightmare

As the light drifts away I'm floating through a vestibule

And I'm shown to my place

The curtains part and I'm face to face

As the scenes take the screen I say my lines

They're different every time

I'm not sure she exists

In the afterglow of when we kiss

It's a delightful nightmare

It's a delightful nightmare

It's a delightful nightmare

Will I find out her name to ponder on

When sleep has gone

Will we meet in daylight will I recognize

And see through her disguise

Will we speak of our dreams

Where everything is not as it seems

It's a delightful nightmare

It's a delightful nightmare

It's a delightful nightmare

Now it seems long ago

That I played my part in our little show

As her touch fades away to a memory

Like the moving sea

It's a delightful nightmare

It's a delightful nightmare

It's a delightful nightmare
