lyrics

I'd be there sooner rather than midnight
If we were travelling at the speed of light
But nonetheless I say I'll be there soon
Step from the platform to the taxi queue

Oh, ever so mad
Is it good to be bad?
Is it any wonder that for you I'd give it all?
Living in that daydream down the hall

Who would've thought that I'd be standing here?
I was oblivious this time last year
So very high and swaying in this room
Lost in the moment I reside with you

Oh, ever so mad
Is it good to be bad?
Is it any wonder that for you I'd give it all?
Meet me in that daydream down the hall

And we'll stay in your bed until half past five
You'll beat me at chess and I'll start to cry
And if you want to go on that train towards the coast
Meet me in that daydream down the hall

Ever so mad
Is it good to be bad?
Is it any wonder that for you I'd give it all?
