Lyrics

Worn Out Fantasy

There you go again
Poppin' into my head
Like you do from time to time
When memories of you and me
And the love that was meant to be
Echo like a perfect rhyme.
And a flood of emotion
Like a foolish devotion
Carries me away
To a day full of heartache and pain
When you gave me back my name

I don't know what I'd do (Chorus)
If you came runnin back to me
Got down on your knees
And swore you'd be true
I don't know what I'd do

I don't know what I'd say
If I'd tell you goodbye
Or ask you to stay
And give it one more try
But it don't matter to me
That's just a worn out fantasy

You tossed me aside and trampled my pride
It took so long to cover the scars
To clear out the ruins and the image of you in
The of another man's arms
But I've come through the darkness
Got on with my life
So don't worry 'bout me
Still I can't shake these feelings
That won't fade and die
I''m not done with the healing
Cause I can't deny that ...

Chorus

(Bridge)
Girl, I know what I should do
Just forget about you
Put you out of mind for good
But every time I try
I long for days gone by
I'd put it all behind me if I could
Ooh - Guitar Solo

Now I got it through my head
Your love for me is dead
You ain't never comin' home to me
That's just a worn out fantasy.
