lyrics

VERSE
We'll go swimming off the coast of Nebraska
We'll make love in the snowy Philippines
We'll eat dinner atop mountains on Atlantis
You'll love the authentic Atlantean cuisine

CHORUS
I only want to take you places we can never go
I only want to be seen with you by people we can never know
Our love is impossible, it just can't exist
But while we're here, let's forget about that, just look out the window
and let's enjoy the scenery

VERSE
Let's go dancing on the surface of Mars
Catch a movie in Brigadoon
Here, my dear, and nowhere else, my love for you is true
I'll shout it from the Dark Side of the Moon

CHORUS
I only want to take you places we can never go
I only want to be seen with you by people we can never know
Our love is impossible, it just can't exist
But while we're here, let's forget about that, and let me you why

BRIDGE
Somewhere, somehow
Anytime but now
We're on vacation from reality
I think I wanna go home

VERSE
We'll sip cocktails on the Great Wall of China
Re-enact Waterloo
And we'll keep grasping at whatever's left to grab on
And keep faking our "I love you"s

CHORUS
I only wanted to take you places we could never go
I only wanted to be seen with you by people we could never know
Our love was impossible, it just couldn't exist
But it was beautiful and magical and a nightmare of color and light

VERSE
We went swimming off the coast of Nebraska
We made love in the snowy Philippines
