Too Unreal
~Too Unreal~
Dedicated to Darren Hayes

It started way back when
Everyone I knew was humming your tune
So was I
I decided to learn a bit more
A lot more was what I came out with
I bought your tapes, saw your videos
Listened to every appearance on radio
I collected every clipping
Saved every bookmark
By then I could already be considered
A hardcore fan
A hardcore fan was what I thought I was
But after a while I realized
That it's not all
I listen to each song with a little hope
That those songs were meant for me
But then I knew that I wasn't the only one
The lyrics implanted in my imagination
I drifted off to blissful sleep
My dreams filled with sinful images
Fantasies so vivid they could be a crime
You and me alone
Getting into things like...oh, never mind
I don't think you really want to know
Besides I'll be too shy to tell
I can't stop thinking about you
That face...those eyes...that hair
That voice...that grace...the attraction!
It simply overwhelms me
I can't stop saying your name anymore
My friends think I'm drunk
The irony is I never drink
They tell me it's only infatuation
Maybe they're right
But for a year?
That's mighty long - for a crush...
My heart lights up with everything you succeed
I feel your sorrow for every failure
I wish I could tell you face-to-face
But you've already got a partner
Actually you're got two
One is that musical friend of yours
The other, your loving wife
Sigh...
Besides, what would the media say?
"Fan declares outmost love to pop superstar"
Scandal will arise
That's not what I wish would happen
I might be too young for you
I'm almost half your age
Well, they say nothing is what they seem
You're actually reality
But more like a dream
For now I have to satisfy myself
With soundwaves from the speakers
Pixels on a screen
And mental images of you
If only I could meet you in person
But that won't be possible for a long while yet
Sigh...
Why is love so cruel?
Having its subjects be attracted to those
Who are really distances apart
Only time will tell if we should meet
For now I just have to tell myself
That my time would come
Sigh...you're too unreal
