And I had a dream about love and loss / And it was you I was dreaming of, of course / And when I woke up in my room alone / I felt like I didn’t know you at all / If you’ve got other trophies / Better show them to me now ‘fore I fall / ‘Cos I’ve been too long in this affair / To be another head on the wall / And in your arms I feel safe and warm / But is your heart only playing along? / At night I wake up in my room alone / Feeling like I don’t know who you are / If you’ve got other trophies / Better show them to me now ‘fore I fall / ‘Cos I’ve been too long in this affair / To be another head on the wall / If you’ve got other lovers / Make them known to me now ‘fore I fall / But if you want to have a real affair / Then open up and show me it all / Won’t you listen to me? / ‘Cos what I’m trying to tell you / Is that I want to be the one / You tell your secret to / Oh you, won’t you listen to me? / If you’ve got other trophies / Better show them to me now ‘fore I fall / ‘Cos I’ve been too long in this affair / To be another head on the wall / If you’ve got other lovers / Make them known to me now ‘fore I fall / But if you want to have a real affair / Then open up and show me it all.
