night time slows, raindrops splash rainbows
 perhaps someone you know, could sparkle and shine
 as daydreams slide to colour from shadow
 picture the moonglow, that dazzles my eyes
 and I love you

 just lying smiling in the dark
 shooting stars around your heart
 [bad word] bouncing in your head
 pure and simple everytime
 now you're crying in your sleep
 I wish you'd never learnt to weep
 don't sell the dreams you should be keeping
 pure and simple everytime

 dreams of sights, of sleigh rides in seasons
 where feelings not reasons, can make you decide
 as leaves pour down, splash autumn on gardens
 as colder nights harden, their moonlit delights
 and I love you

 just lying smiling in the dark
 shooting stars around your heart
 [bad word] bouncing in your head
 pure and simple everytime
 now you're crying in your sleep
 I wish you'd never learnt to weep
 don't sell the dreams you should be keeping
 pure and simple everytime

 look at me with starry eyes
 push me up to starry skies
 there's stardust in my head
 pure and simple everytime
 fresh and deep as oceans new
 shiver at the sight of you
 I 'll sing a softer tune
 pure and simple over you

 if love's the [bad word] then look no lies
 and let me swim around your eyes
 I've found a place I 'll never leave
 shut my mouth and just believe
 love is the [bad word] I realize
 not a stream of pretty lies
 to use us up and waste our time

 just lying smiling in the dark
 shooting stars around your heart
 [bad word] bouncing in your head
 pure and simple everytime
 now you're crying in your sleep
 I wish you'd never learned to weep
 don't sell the dreams you should be keeping
 pure and simple everytime

 look at me with starry eyes
 push me up to starry skies
 there's stardust in my head
 pure and simple everytime
 fresh and deep as oceans new
 shiver at the sight of you
 I 'll sing a softer tune
 pure and simple over you
 pure and simple just for you
