You make me nervous when I see you
I can't imagine what it's like to be you
It's a mystery to me everyday

And I've got to get away

I put a bet on with a bookie

For the race they put on over in Kentucky
It's lovely at this time of year, so they say
And I've got to get away


But I'm a dreamer and you know
I'm a schemer with an eye for a show

It's my imagination when I get low
And the truth is I don't think I'll ever go


When the music's playing, that's when it changes
And no longer do we seem like total strangers
It's all those words which always get in the way

Of what you want to say

When I wake up in the morning

I think it only fair to give you warning
I probably won't go away
I'll more than likely stay


'Coz I'm a dreamer and you know
I'm a schemer with an eye for a show

It's my imagination when I get low
And the truth is I don't think I'll ever go


'Coz I'm a dreamer and you know
I'm a schemer with an eye for a show
It's my imagination when I get low

And the truth is I don't think I'll ever go
