Imagination Lyrics - Elvis Costello

So you're trying to make connection 

You heard whispers in the hall 

She'll be out again this evening 

When you come around to call 

So you dodge the lady killer 

Who came creepin' 'cross the floor 

Then you caught up in a whirlwind 

You got blown right out the door 

Oh yes, it was a whirlwind 

Sweet romance was on your side 

If you wanna dance on my face 

You must tell me why you lied

Imagination is a powerful deceiver 

When you try to believe her just a little too much 

Imagination is a powerful deceiver 

I'll go out of my mind, if I'm losing your touch 

I see a look of recognition 

So well hidden in your eye 

And your peepshow regulations 

They just don't seem to apply 

Well, did I see you in the circus 

In the ring without a hand 

Now you think that you can curse us 

Steal the show and stop the band 

Oh, you can follow your dreams 

Oh, but please don't lead me on 

If you wanna bleed in my face 

You were here and now you're gone

I'll go out of my mind, if I'm losing your touch 

I'll go out of my mind, if I'm losing your touch
