Oh my love, you are a constant contradiction
Your heart reads fantasy, your head non fiction
Last night you told me you don’t believe in ‘the one’,
Yet your eyes filled with tears as you watched the setting the sun
It makes me sad to think you can’t see a life with me,
Cos I dreamed we’d have some land one day and plant some apple trees
Oh I know you think I’m just a dreamer
And I know you think if I climb too high I’ll fall
But baby when you say, I’m just a dreamer
Your blowing out the candle in my heart
Your blowing out the candle in my heart
I know you don’t want to hurt me, as much as I don’t wanna hurt you
But fuck it hurts to imagine one of us with somebody new
Because when we’re intertwined like lovers, underneath the twilight covers
Time slows for a moment and our differences subside
It’s like angels are watching over us,
While there’s nothing to say
As we drift out in the water, under moon light far away
Oh I know you think I’m just a dreamer
And I know you think if I climb too high I’ll fall
But when you laugh and say, I’m just a dreamer
Your blowing out the candle in my heart
Your blowing out the candle in my heart
The first Christmas we were in love you gave me a poetry book of Sylvia’s
You wrote inside that you had caught a falling star
I wondered why you felt I was falling rather than shooting
Thought how can someone so romantic, build up so many walls
If you just let me, I can show you how to ask for more
Oh I know you think I’m just a dreamer
And I know you think if I reach too high I’ll fall
But baby when you say, I’m just a dreamer
Your blowing out the candle in my heart
Your blowing out the candle in my heart
I know my eyes are full on moon just likes jonis always were
You listen to her objectively, while I imagine I am her
Oh I know she was your first love and you admire her all the same
If only you could see my fire was built from her roaring flame
Oh I know you think I’m just a dreamer
And I know you think if I climb too high I’ll fall
But baby when you say, I’m just a dreamer
Your blowing out the candle in my heart
Your blowing out the candle in my heart
