RICK SPRINGFIELD
Living in Oz
"Alyson"
Talk about life imitating art
Well, I was sure that I heard the Director yell
"Take it from the start"
And I could feel my body crushing yours
Camera dollied into place
Your husband's in the front row
I couldn't look him in the face
Part of the pleasure
was that it felt so wrong
But it grew too fast, too strong
Don't you think your friends are talking, Alyson?
They're blaming it all on me
I'm blaming it all on love
Well, don't you think your friends are talking, Alyson?
Just a little sexual tension
Under the guise of love
Young and tragic
I really felt the part
While we were sweating and screaming
tearin' out his heart
Well, I was sure I heard the wind in the wires
Crying in sympathy
For star-crossed lovers
Ally, that ain't you or me
Part of the pleasure
was that it felt so wrong
But it grew too fast, too strong
Don't you think your friends are talking, Alyson?
They're blaming it all on me
I'm blaming it all on love
Well, don't you think your friends are talking, Alyson?
Just a little sexual tension
Under the guise of love
For a limited run into your local bedroom
We knew the curtain would be coming down soon
Reviews were mixed, the press was unkind
Ally, I hope they will forgive us in time
In time
Part of the big attraction
was that we knew it couldn't last
So we closed our eyes and held on
(fast)
Don't you think your friends are talking, Alyson?
Who were we trying to fool?
What was I thinking of?
Well, don't you think your friends are talking, Alyson?
They're blaming it all on me
I'm blaming it all on love
Well, don't you think your friends are talking, Alyson?
Just a little sexual tension
Under the guise of love
