I was living another life
In another country

She says she's got so much to say
But she's not telling it today
She said "Come back when you're alone"
But I'm not sure I want to know
Cause maybe her road

Think I might've taken all I can
I let the genie out of the box

An attic of treasure, a forgotten pleasure park
Waiting inside you in the dark
Don?t leave it behind
Don?t leave it behind
