The magician is tryin' to fool you
Politician is tryin' to rule you
I want to talk to the real you
So when you gonna be mine?
The salesman is tryin' to sell you
The talkin' head's tryin' to tell you
Oh, but you know it's always been all you
So when you gonna be mine?
When you gonna close your eyes, call my name
So long, so long lost insane
Your sun shines, your heart's true, here I come
I'm gonna be the one for you
Yeah, I'm gonna be the one for you
The pop star is tryin' to play you
The dancers are tryin' to sway you
You ask what I want and I say, "You"
So when you gonna be mine?
When you gonna close your eyes, call my name
So long, so long lost insane
Your sun shines, your heart's true, here I come
I'm gonna be the one for you
Yeah, I'm gonna be the one for you
The teacher is tryin' to school you
The magician is tryin' to fool you
Oh, but I wanna be with the real you
So when you gonna be mine?
When you gonna close your eyes, call my name
So long, so long lost insane
Your sun shines, your heart's true, here I come
When you gonna close your eyes, call my name
So long, so long lost insane
Your sun shines, your heart's true, here I come
Yeah, I'm gonna be the one for you
Yeah, I'm gonna be the one for you
Yeah, I'm gonna be the one for you
