lyrics

in this light we are perfect
in the strobe of my blinking eye
your silhouette leaves me breathless
you lean in close with a sigh

we are half-drunk in the half-light
we are painted in slivers of gold
if I let my guard down for a moment
my thoughts run off uncontrolled

mad fantasies that tease from the shadows
turn the house lights on again
they never live up to what we imagine
turn the house lights on again

I am the projector
I see only one frame at a time
I think I've got the whole picture
but I can't see my own mind

I'm comfortable with my illusions
as long as they turn out to be real
I know I invented you
to fit what I want to feel

mad fantasies that tease from the shadows
turn the house lights on again
they never live up to what we imagine
turn the house lights on again
