Hello old friend long time no see
Except the sea between you and me
And that's physical and that's impenetrable
Left you laughing at the dreams that i told you
Now i'm laughing at the dreams that they sold me
It's such a shame, you had to join their nasty game
Chorus 1
You didn't hold on
You didn't hold on
You didn't hold on
To a dream,
Ain't it obscene
The silence in your room is getting me down
The thickly atmosphere descends upon the clown
Who laughs no more, he broke the golden law
Chorus 2
He didn't hold on
He didn't hold on
He didn't hold on
To the dream,
Ain't it obscene
The way they shake you, try to wake you
Be a man now, be a woman now
Try to shake you up, try to wake you up
Be a grown up, be a sour puss
Never mind my love, i'll leave this for you
Don't bother calling me, maybe i'll call you, so
Stay on the scene
And i'll stay chasing my dreams
Chorus 1
Chorus 2
