[Verse 1]
A fiction romance, I love this love story
That never seems to happen in my life
A fiction romance, all love, and glory
That never seems to happen in my life
[Chorus 1]
Dreams of love, and dreams of pain
And dreams again, again, again, again
Which can be yours just by taking hold
Dreams that I can realize
Are quite contained within your eyes
Say, fiction romance is not so old
[Verse 2]
A fiction romance, the love of the ages
That never seems to matter in my life
A fiction romance on magazine pages
That never seems to feature in my life
[Chorus 2]
Dreaming, scheming, unaware that
Quiet somewhere, some unaware folk
Are not thinking 'bout what they have been told
Something strange is happening to
The way I see the world I view
That fiction romance is not sold
[Verse 3]
As a fiction romantic, I never expected
All these things to happen in real life
And no fiction romantic could ever've predicted
All the things that happen in my life
[Chorus 3]
When I don't know what to do
I just think about me and you
If I was a little stronger then I'd be bold
Something strange is happening to me
I don't know what these shivers mean to you
Is this the fiction kind of romance getting hold?
[Outro]
A fiction romance, a fiction romance
A fiction romance, a fiction romance
A fiction romance, a fiction romance
A fiction romance, a fiction romance
Fiction romance, fiction romance
Fiction romance, fiction romance
Fiction romance, fiction romance
Fiction romance, fiction romance
