I don’t know where you are now,
I don’t know where you stay.
I know that I can’t see you there,
You’ve gone too far away.

At night I know you’re in my dream,
Elusive, just out of my sight.
I have held you in my arms
But it never felt all right.

Once I had the best dream –
I held you there so tight.
But then you turned to plastic
And again ran out of my sight.

I wonder if you hate me,
If you know what I have done.
Do you realise what you mean to me?
Or do you think I was in it for fun?

In my mind I search for you.
I run and stop and look.
I can’t believe you’re nowhere
And an hour was all it took.
