Sometimes


Sometimes

So What became of me?
In that city by the sea
Where once a pirate roamed
 and the future was postponed

Somewhere along the way
My eyes were led astray
As the darkness fell
 Absinthe in a shell 


Is it written in the stars
Or carved in marble stone?
Captured by the queen of hearts
The only devil I have known
Oooh hoo

Something wicked this way comes
From the beating of the drums
In the middle of the night
 Overcome with candle light

Time and time again,
I reluctantly descend
Into your extreme
at the edges of a dream


Oooh hoo
Edges of a dream

Edges of a dream
Sometimes
You yourself are free
You yourself are free

Disappearing in the breeze
While the going's good she leaves
After all the bars have closed
She's an angel in repose

Is it written in the stars
Or carved in marble stone?
Captured by the queen of hearts
The only devil I have known
Something wicked this way comes
From the beating of the drums
In the middle of the night
 Overcome with candle light
Time and time again,
I reluctantly descend
Into your extreme
at the edges of a dream

Ooh hoo
Edges of a dream

Sometimes
You
yourself
are free
Sometimes
You
yourself
are free


So What became of me?
In that city by the sea
Where once a pirate roamed
 and the future was postponed

Somewhere along the way
My eyes were led astray
As the darkness fell
 Absinthe in a shell 


Is it written in the stars
Or carved in marble stone?
Captured by the queen of hearts
The only devil I have known
Oooh hoo

Something wicked this way comes
From the beating of the drums
In the middle of the night
 Overcome with candle light

Time and time again,
I reluctantly descend
Into your extreme
at the edges of a dream


Ooh hoo
Edges of a dream
