\"\"<\/p>\n

A kaleidoscope I see<\/p>\n

a girl with rainbow hair, and free<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

you are my fascination street<\/p>\n

a reflection of my face in heat<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

when Friday I\u2019m in love now<\/p>\n

the love cats all come slinking round<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

your face I see bowing dour<\/p>\n

a lullaby that makes you cower<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

from the edge of the deep green sea I peer<\/p>\n

homesick, and the end is drawing near<\/p>\n

why can\u2019t I be you, I wonder<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

a strange attraction pulls me strong<\/p>\n

and then I sing\u00a0a sweet lovesong<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

pictures of you in the purple haze<\/p>\n

I\u2019m counting down in between days<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

just like heaven I\u2019ll be amazed<\/p>\n

when at your concert I\u2019ll be crazed<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

let\u2019s go to bed I ask thee dear<\/p>\n

not ever in one hundred years<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

maybe someday, always pray<\/p>\n

but never enough, even today<\/p>\n

it\u2019s not you it\u2019s me, you dare to play<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
