Visions Of Sugarplums

When I want to drop out of reality

I cop out to the memory of things that you and I did

My mind is a projection as I gaze in recollection

At the Cinerama screen inside my eyelids

And visions of sugarplums race through my head

You and I drinking yesterday's wine

But soon the morning sun of today will touch my bed

And burst the pretty bubble in my mind

Now my eyes are open reminiscent dreams are broken

By the lips of one mistake I made a while back

For I chose her in place of you so when I need a taste of you

I look into my mind and see you smile back

And visions of sugarplums race through my head

You and I drinking yesterday's wine

But soon the morning sun of today will touch my bed

And burst the pretty bubble in my mind
