Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'd be the voice that urged Orpheus when her body was found (Hey, yeah)

I'd be the choiceless hope in grief that drove him underground (Hey, yeah)

I'd be the dreadful need in the devotee that made him turn around (Hey, yeah)

And I'd be the immediate forgiveness in Eurydice

Imagine being loved by me

[Chorus]

I won't deny I've got in my mind now (Hey, yeah)

All the things I would do

So I try to talk refined, for fear that you find out (Hey, yeah)

How I'm imaginin' you

[Verse 2]

I'd be the last shred of truth in the lost myth of true love (Hey, yeah)

I'd be the sweet feeling of release mankind now dreams of (Hey, yeah)

That's found in the last witness

Before the wave hits

Marvelling at God (Hey, yeah)

Before he feels alone one final time

And marries the sea

Imagine being loved by me

[Chorus]

I won't deny I've got in my mind now (Hey, yeah)

All the things I would do

So I try to talk refined, for fear that you find out (Hey, yeah)

How I'm imaginin' you

[Chorus]

I won't deny I've got in my mind now (Hey, yeah)

All the things we could do

So I try to talk refined, for fear that you find out (Hey, yeah)

How I'm imaginin' you
