Night after night, I try to make it all fit together
Night after night, I see you as someone I remember
You took me by surprise, opened up my eyes
Now we gotta talk this over

Can it really be so serious, to be all broken up and delirious
I guess we've really been out of touch, but can it really be so serious
Day after day, I know it's not the way that you wanted it
Day after day, I try to find the key but it don't fit
But you how it is, no matter what I did
We gotta talk it over

Can it really be so serious, to be all broken up and delirious
I guess we've really been out of touch, but can it really be so serious
Tonight, tonight, I'm thinking over everything you said to me
Tonight, tonight, I'm sorry but I just didn't see
And now it's up to you, there's nothing else to do
We've gotta talk it over

Can it really be so serious, to be all broken up and delirious
I guess we've really been out of touch, but can it really be so serious

so serious

Well I've been waiting
Waiting here so long
But thinking nothing
Nothing could go wrong
But now I know
She has a built in ability
To take everything she sees
And now it seems I'm falling
Falling for her

She seems to have
An invisible touch
Yeah
She reaches in
Grabs right hold of your heart

She seems to have
An invisible touch
Yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart.

The visions dancing in my mind,
The early dawn the shades of time.
Twilight crawling through my window pane.

Am I awake or do I dream,
The strangest pictures I have seen,
Night is day and twilight's gone away.

With your head held high and your scarlet lies,
You came down to me from the open skies,
It's either real or it's a dream
There's nothing that is in between

Chorus
Twilight, I only meant to stay a while
Twilight, I gave you time to steal my mind
Away from me.

Across the night I saw your face
You disappeared without a trace
You brought me here but can you take me back.

A penny in your pocket, suitcase in your hand,
They won't get you very far,
Now you're a 21st century man.

Fly across the city, rise above the land,
You can do 'most anything,
Now you're a 21st century man.

Though you ride on the wheels of tomorrow,
You still wander the fields of your sorrow.

One day you're a hero, next day you're a clown,
There's nothing that is in between,
Now you're a 21st century man.

You should be so happy, you should be so glad,
So why are you so lonely, you 21st century man.
