Second Skin Songtext
von The Chameleons

One cold April day the world stood still
I watched as I held my breath
A silhouette I thought I knew
Came through, someone spoke to me as he whispered in my ear
"This fantasy′s for you, fantasies are in the air"

My whole life flashed before my eyes
I thought of what they said was true
I shed my skin and my disguise
And cold, numb and naked, I emerged from my cocoon
And a half-remembered tune played softly in my head, he said

And he turned smiling
And said
He turned smiling and said
"I realise a miracle is due
I dedicate this melody to you
I realise a miracle is due
I dedicate this melody to you"


But is this the stuff dreams are made of?
If this is the stuff dreams are made of
No wonder I feel like I'm floating on air
No wonder I feel like I′m floating on air
But I realise a miracle is due
I dedicate this melody to you

But is this the stuff dreams are made of?
If this is the stuff dreams are made of
No wonder I feel like I'm floating on air
No wonder I feel like I'm floating on air
No wonder I feel like I′m floating on
Floating on air

And it feels like I′m everywhere
Tell you what it's like
It′s like you failed to make the connection
You know how vital it is
Or when something slips through your fingers
You know how precious it is
When you reach the point where you know
It's only your second skin
It′s only your second skin
Let it in, let it in

Thank you very much
