The Cure - More Than This

for a second of your life
tell me that it's true
waiting for a sign
it's all i want of you
your heart hides a secret
"the promise of what is"
...or something more than this?

just a second of your time
any one will do
the taste of any 'other'
is all i want from you
offer me the world
and how can i resist
something more than this?

make-believe in magic
make-believe in dreams
make-believe in possible
nothing as it seems
to see touch taste smell hear
but never know if it's real...

for a second of your life
tell me if it's true
anywhere beyond
it's all i want of you
on your lips lies a secret
"the promise of a kiss"

...or something more than this?

just a second of your time
any one will do
to know of any 'other'
is all i want from you
giving me the world
know i can't resist
something more than this

make-believe in magic
make-believe in dreams
make-believe in possible
nothings as it seems
and never really understand
what anything means...

another second of my life
not knowing if it's true
make-believe in nothing
it's all i want of you
whisper me the secret
whisper me...

"there is always something other...
something more than this"
