True Believer

[Verse 1]
Nightly, you retrace your steps again
To return to the scene of the crime
It's uncanny how you hover in the air
Of the wreckage that you left behind

[Chorus]
I want you but you're a poltergeist
I want you but, baby, the price is high
I want you and now I've said it twice
So, Mary, dim the lights

[Verse 2]
Really, when you come into the room
It's not helping me, seeing you down
It's not easy in this phosphorescent gloom
Telling waking dreams apart anyhow

[Chorus]
I want you but you're a poltergeist
I want you but, baby, the price is high
I want you and now I've said it twice
So, Mary, dim the lights

[Bridge]
Cups and saucers crashing in
But Houdini applauds the gag again
There no one's a true believer

[Chorus]
I want you but you're a poltergeist
I want you but, baby, the price is high
I want you and now I've said it twice
So, Mary, dim the lights

[Outro]
Cups and saucers crashing in
But Houdini applauds the gag again
