You said you’d hide the locket in your sleeve
But I guess you’re now running truly late
Little did you know when you tried me out for size
That you would end up going overboard
It took a little time to break your heart
Took a little time to break free
Took a little time to break the chains
of the gilded cage you kept me in all alone
Kept me in all alone
Kept me in all alone
Sail now!
All the ships that take you away from where you are
Sail now!
So you conquer all the towns you ever wanted
Sail now!
All the ships that take you away from where you are
Sail now!
All the seas that let your frail mind shimmer on
From the heights - on a plain
Everyday I play your game
From the heights - on a plain
Everyday I beat you at your own game
It took a little time to break your heart
Took a little time to break free
Took a little time to break the chains of the gilded cage you kept me in all alone
Kept me in all alone
Kept me in all alone
Let it shimmer!
Let it shimmer!
Let it shimmer all you want
Let it shimmer!
Let it shimmer!
Let it shimmer for all it’s worth
It’s all you need to know
It's all I need to know
