Fish A Gentleman's Excuse Me Lyrics

Do you still keep paper flowers
in the bottom drawer with your Belgian lace
Taking them out every year to watch the colors fade away?
Do you still believe in fairy tales,
in battlements of shining castles
Safe from the dragons that lie beneath the hill?

Are you still a Russian princess
rescued by a gypsy dancer
To anyone who'll listen
is that a story you still tell?
You live a life of fantasy, your diary romantic fiction
Can't you see it's hard for me,
can you see what I am trying to say?

It's a gentleman's excuse me
so I'll take one step to the side
Can you get it inside your head I'm tired of dancing?
For every one step forward I'm taking two steps back
Can you get it inside your head I'm tired of dancing?

I know you still like old fashioned waltzes
Your reflection in the mirror that you flirt with
as you glide across the floor
But if I told you the music's over would you want to hear
That your dance card
is empty, that there's no-one really there?

Do you still believe in Santa Claus,
there's a millionaire looking for your front door
with a key to a life that you'd never understand?
And all I have to offer
is the love I have, it's freely given
You'll see its value
when you see what I've tried to say

It's a gentleman's excuse me
so I'll take one step to the side
Can you get it inside your head I'm tired of dancing?
For every one step forward I'm taking two steps back

Can you get it inside your head that from this one step forward there's no turning back?

Can you get it inside your head I'm tired of dancing?
We're finished dancing
