Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Another night once again
Time well-spent but to no end
I'm a twig that hangs from a bow
I know I really should be home by now
[Pre-Chorus]
As if it could be more
What am I hoping for?
[Chorus]
You're a rarity
A hopeless fantasy
You're a rarity
Please don't see through me
You're a rarity
[Verse 2]
The winds of truth break me off
To admire you is enough
Nothing I could ever give
Could compare to what you already have
[Pre-Chorus]
Would you settle for less?
I try to put these thoughts to rest
[Chorus]
You're a rarity
A hopeless fantasy
You're a rarity
Please don't see through m?
[Bridge]
Now and then a glimpse of a dream
Oh I hop? to death I move unseen
Stop myself before I say anymore
I say anymore
[Chorus]
You're a rarity
A hopeless fantasy
You're a rarity
Please don't see through me
You're a rarity
You're a rarity
