I hope that no one’s listening
Anticipating someone’s there

Romantic me
Romantic me
Romantic me
Romantic

Talk
Big, big clock

I see
See a girl beside her dreams

Romantic dreams
Romantic dreams
Romantic dreams
Romantic

Talk
Big, big clock

Big, big clock

Tick, big…

I fear
Fear a man beside his schemes

Romantic schemes
Romantic schemes
A selfish dream
Such a selfish…

Swim, big fish

Swim, big…

Swim, big fish
