Living In A Fantasy

Writers: alan tarney & leo sayer

When we're round at a friend's house
You act so precious and cool
Tell her i'm nothin' special at all
Just somebody who's passin' through
Just sombody who's passin' through

And here i am tryin' to tell you again
But you just don't understand
That we could be somethin' special i know
If you'd only let go -- take a chance
Just try it once -- take a chance

But we're only -- we're only foolin'
You know that we are -- we're only foolin'
Tell me what are you gonna do
About a fool who's in love with you
What are you gonna do

When we go out on a saturday night
Feel like i'm stringin' along
I ask you where are we going from here
You know but you're not lettin' on babe
Well you know but you're not lettin' on

So here we are at the crossroads
Between better or worse
You tellin' me i'm too serious babe
And one of use is gonna get hurt
Why do i always get hurt

But we're only -- we're only foolin'
You know that we are -- we're only foolin'

Tell me what are you gonna do
About a fool who's in love with you
What are you gonna do

I got your postcard it made me lonely
I'm out of money and no one really cares
The south of france has sunny weather
Pretty boats and lots of millionaires

Now you're not coming home
You like the style and you're staying here
Pretty boys everywhere you go
You lead 'em on and then you disappear

You say you're gonna find a millionaire
-- well i wish you luck
And we were never going anywhere
-- and now you've had enough
You didn't wanna be
Going broke with a loser like me
And you're a girl who's just got to be free
And i don't think you'll ever be happy
Chasing a millionaire

All the streets are dead without you
Empty shops and old abandoned cars
In saint tropez your man is waiting
He comes with diamonds to the hotel bar

You say you're not going home
You like the sun and you're staying here
He'll ask if you're on your own
You say "why not" then you both disappear

Now you say you're found your millionaire
-- oh well i don't care
Says he's gonna take you everywhere
-- i just don't care

I bet he'll let you down
That kinda guy never hangs around
He's got a girl in every town
And i don't think you'll ever be happy
Living with a millionaire

Now you say you're found your millionaire
-- oh well i don't care
Says he's gonna take you everywhere
-- i just don't care
Then one day he's gonna let you down
He'll have you searching every club in town
That kind of guy will only drag you down

You can go and take your millionaire
-- oh i don't wanna know
Tell you that i really do not care
-- and your life's your own
You see them everywhere you go
Chasing the sun in alfa romeos
You gotta catch 'em before they get too old
And i don't think you'll ever be happy
Chasing a millionaire

You feel there's enough
You try because you did get lonely
And hearts feel too much
And right now you know you're only blue
'cos time ran out on you
Well -- that's tough
And so you try to steal the feelin'
Back -- when you touch
A touch too much just starts you reelin' now
You start to reason how
You know you do
'cos time ran out on you

You keep holdin' on
You know it's wrong but you can't let go
And here comes tonight
You say the situation's not your style
You linger for a while
That's what you do
'cos time ran out on you

You just don't feel right
And you pretend to be sincere
But nothing is clear
You're no sincere

You still don't feel right
And you have no intention to be
Left standing by
You say the situation's not your style
You linger for a while
That's what you do
'cos time ran out on you

more than i can say
Leo sayer

Wow wow yea yea
I love you more than i can say
I'll love you twice as much tomorrow
Oh love you more than i can say
Wow wow yea yea
I miss you ev'ry single day
Why must my life be filled with sorrow
I love you more than i can say
Why don't you know i need you so
Oh tell me please i gotta know
Do you mean to make me cry
Am i just another guy
Wow wow yea yea
I love you more than i can say
I'll love you twice as much tomorrow
Oh love you more than i can say
I love you more than i can say
I love you more than i can say

Monday morning nine a.m.
I missed my bus i must've overslept again
'phoned up work told 'em i can't go on
Since she left this house is not a home i know

She's not coming back
She's not coming back
She's not coming back
She's not coming back

All my friends they keep coming around
Well they can ress me up but i won't paint the town
No one else'll do the things she'd do
All my fun is up because i know this time for sure

She's not coming back
-- she didn't have a reason
-- she wanted to be free
-- she told me she was leaving

Monday evenings used to be so easy rollin'
Staying home with her
Now this room is like a prison
I can't go nowhere i'm nothing without her
She's not coming back -- no more

Tuesday morning and it's not that bad
Well i'm smiling now thinking of all the fun we had
And if i see her this is what i will say
Well thanks for asking but as you see i'm okay

She's not coming back
-- she didn't have a reason
-- she wanted to be free
-- she told me she was leaving
She was leaving me
