All great love stories are fictional
All passionate lovers are mere characters
True love is only found in literature
Pure lovers exist only between pages

Let them continue to believe what they want
They don’t know about you and me
Ours is a love beyond their understanding
We are lovers beyond their imagination

Oh what a feeling
To be dealing
With a thief who’s stealing
My heart every day
In every way

There’s no aim in concealing
My emotions as she’s reeling
Me into her arms and revealing
Her love every day
In every way

I don’t mind
If tomorrow I find
That my scalp is losing hair
Here and there
Everywhere

A shiny new head
Won’t cause me dread
Losing my hair
Won’t be a scare
Though I may be unprepared

I will mind
If tomorrow I find
That my heart is losing you
You’ve decided to
Discontinue

A silent empty heart
Would tear me apart
If I can’t undo
Losing your hue
Watching you depart

Quit entering my head
When I’m lying in my bed
It’s a feeling I’ve never had
Before

This is not me complainin’
But it’s so hard to explain it.
As I can’t seem to contain it
Anymore

Not sure why I even bother
To try and find another
Way to sleep when I’d rather
Be awake

In this wet moonlight
As the stars burn bright
Make me yours tonight
Till daybreak

You are my Sunday
My fun day
My one day
That I look forward to
My ray of light
In a week of blight
As dark as night
To pull me through

You make the week seem
Like a daydream
When I really ought to
Shout scream
Blow steam
In an extreme
Way I always do

Without you
I can’t cope
I’d lose hope
There’s no scope
Of carrying on
For another dawn
I’d act withdrawn
And get sad
Get mad
Yes that bad
But with you
I’m glad
But with you
I feel new
Woohoo
Because you’re my Sunday
My fun day
My one day
That I look forward to

Just when I thought
The day was about to get better
I received a letter
And I said — Oh God, not another bill!
I stood there confused
Wondering what dues
Would bring me the news
Which would make me curse
And loosen my purse
But then I looked at the post
It looked different than most
It was not
What I had first thought

I felt hesitation
To see an invitation
To a destination
Where a soulmate I could find
Inside was a ticket
All was needed was to pick it
And follow the plan designed
I did as instructed
Left the fears I’d constructed
In the back of my mind
As I stepped out of the door
A bus waited and lo!
I never looked behind

The vehicle was overflowin’
With young, old and easy-goin’
But there was no knowin’
Where my stop would be
So I calmly took a seat
At the back of the fleet
And waited for my sweet
Moment to arrive
Every now and then
The bus would stop and then
A hopeful man
Would step out with dreamy eyes
We all would wish him well
But as far as I could tell
We were keen and dyin’
To save our souls from sighin’
The rest of our lives

I watched the men part
With hope in their hearts
Till there was nobody left
All alone I sat
Beginning to regret
Wondering if it was a con
That I had been on
But then my mind’s fault
Came to a halt
And I knew my stop had come
I stepped off the steps
On to your doorstep
And saw a warm, cosy home

When I rang the bell
I had no way to tell
What was on the other side
But my god the surprise
When I looked in your eyes
Was more than I could hide
The life I had before
Ceased to make sense anymore
The past had gracefully died
Long may it be told
To her charm I was sold
To my future I had arrived

I never believed them
When they spoke
Of how passionate
Their hearts had become
At the touch of romance

I never believed them
When they mentioned
How silly they had acted
Every time the object of
Their affections appeared
In front of them

I never believed them
When they said they saw
That special face
Everywhere they went

I never believed them
When they described
What heaven must feel like

I never believed them
When they talked about
The madness of it all

It all seemed like passages
Lifted from a twopenny novel
Of an era long gone by

I never believed them
I never believed them
I never believed them and it’s true
I never believed them
I never believed them
I never believed them until I met you
