What’s the matter here Something ain’t right Tell me it’s not true Tell me it’s all right
There was a time I’d run around for you Get down on my knees I swear it’s true But you came in the night And took my heart To Dracula’s castle in the dark
Now I’ve gotta tell you That you’ve gotta know I want you to stay but you’re gonna go Don’t leave me alone you'll tear me apart You’re in control (Don't break my heart)
So goodbye love You were not real You came to stay But now you leave I can’t explain The way you feel We once stood high But now we kneel
You can’t keep on running How far do you think you’d get? You've got the world if you want it I ain’t done with you yet
I work hard just to keep you by my side Every day and almost every night
In the end you took away my heart Left me alone (In the dark)
So goodbye love You were not real You came to stay But now you leave I can’t explain The way it feels We once stood high But now we kneel
So goodbye love You were not real You came to stay But now you leave I can’t explain The way it feels We once stood high But now we kneel |

Notes
Hooky: “That started as a jam with me, Phil and Steve.”
Bernard: “St Catherine’s, where this was partly recorded, was built by Henry VIII for one of his illegitimate daughters. It was a courthouse for a bit and I wrote lyrics in this room where people were judged and tried. It had an old fireplace, and was all lit by candles. It was a creative room but very spooky. That’s why Dracula’s castle is in there.”
