I stood here before

A half opened door with bright light shining through
And I hear my name

At the wrong time

You can take my heart and run away

Make me follow you where you go

Oh the skies are grey
B
The rain is pouring heavily on my head
E
You offer shelter with a long embrace and a warm place in your bed

Where?s my mind?

At the wrong time

Make me follow you where you go

Just don't care
A
Oh and we fantasized, and we dreamed perhaps somewhere along the line

We?ll meet again

In another place

At the right time

You can take my heart and run away

Make me follow you where you go
