A Twist in the Tale

As you watch from your house on the hill
World keeps spinning around you, you're standing still
And a thought never enters your mind

Something happened once in my life
A fading picture of you that's so hard to describe
I've been where the sun never shines

That's all right, there's a change in the story
That's all right, there's a change in the plan
A twist in the tale

Face in the mirror, head in the clouds
Hanging on to a dream that you can't do without
As it drops like a stone without trace

Give what you want, take what you need
Squeezing so hard, there's no room to breathe
And your flavour has fallen from grace

That's all right, there's a change in the story
That's all right, there's a change in the plan
A twist in the tale

I saw you dancing
Dancing on air
You were lost in the starlight
Ooh, no one but me really cared

Every question turns out a lie
Can't you swallow the truth for once in your life?
I loved you but don't ask me why

It's all right, there's a change in the story
It's all right, there's a change in the plan
A twist in the tale
