	Imagine my dismay my darling After our night of sopping passion I awoke and found you gone I scraped my fingers through the empty hole of you Our sheets were as cold as stone Wandering these dank and restless halls Hoping to find you playing the tease My day ended on the balcony Screaming your name Into the wild and empty seas I want to see you I want to hold you Caress your furrow'd brow I want to feel you I want to touch you I want to pin you down When you said 'Paris' dear I thought you meant France Not you fleeing With that pimply little queer All these years you've been singing his name And whispering poison Into my desperate ear Come Back Helen I'll find some way In my heart, for me to forgive For one more night my tortured soul Caressed Under you loving wing I want to see you I want to hold you Caress your furrow'd brow I want to feel you I want to touch you I want to pin you down

about

Imagine my dismay my darling, after our night of sopping passion I awoke and found you gone
I scraped my fingers through the empty hole of you. Our sheets were as cold as stone
Wandering these dank and restless halls hoping to find you playing the tease...
My day ended on the balcony screaming your name into the wild and empty seas ...

I wanna see you!
I wanna hold you!
Caress your patterned brow...
I wanna feel you!
I wanna touch you!
I want to pin you down ...

When you said ‘Paris’ dear, I thought you meant France, not you fleeing with that pimply little queer
All these years you’ve been singing his name and whispering poison into my desperate ear
Come back Helen, I’ll find some way in my heart for me to forgive ...
For one more night my tortured soul caressed under your loving wing ...

I wanna see you!
I wanna hold you!
Caress your patterned brow...
I wanna feel you!
I wanna touch you!
I want to pin you down ...

Why don’t you relax you old man? (Cos I’m a fool ...)
Cherish the times that we had (I love you ...)
There’s no need to make me the reason
To launch a thousand ships into the morning sun ...

I wanna see you!
I wanna hold you!
Caress your patterned brow...
I wanna feel you!
I wanna touch you!
I want to pin you down ...

I wanna see you!
I wanna hold you!
Caress your patterned brow...
I wanna feel you!
I wanna touch you!
I want to pin you down ...
