When you close your eyes
When I hear you crying, baby
I kind of lose my mind
Everything goes hazy
Pandemonium strikes
Always at night
The flashing coloured lights
In your eyes
Drying baby
Watching the clocks frozen hands
Your heart has shattered
Like a glass menagerie
Tears in your eyes
So you cannot speak
So take a breath
Floating feeling free
And close your door
Like it's 1983
When I slow down time
For a little while, baby
I have to be reminded
Of a past gone by me, baby
Then reality strikes
Always at night
And it gets us down
Everything is crazy
Filling your pockets
While you can
Your heart has shattered
Like a glass menagerie
Tears in your eyes
So you cannot speak
So take a breath
Floating feeling free
And close your door
Like it's 1983
When I realise
When we are apart, baby
I kind of lose my mind
All my rhymes get lazy
It's a difficult life
Always a fight
And it gets us down
Everything is crazy
Take in the love
While you can
Your heart has shattered
Like a glass menagerie
Tears on your face
So you cannot breathe
So take a moment
Floating feeling free
And open the door
Like it's 1983
