Lyrics
These days you're becoming my hallucination

Here now, then gone

I know, that's wrong
Acknowledges the awareness that avoiding expectations is not the right approach.
And I've been floating troubled waters

Trying to pull you out of the blue

Ooh and I just wanna see this through

And ooh too much work for a guy like you
