There's a girl who wants to run away
She wants to steal my heart
There's a girl who wants to run away
She wont get too far

We've been dreaming of tomorrow
But it never comes around
We've been dreaming of tomorrow
But we never make a sound

She sits beside me on the train
But I look the other way
I've got a secret in my heart

Music is my mistress and she keeps the girls away
They always seem to come along but never seem to say
Music is my mistress and she whispers in my ear
I don't need nobody else to tell me what to hear

Someone's sleeping underneath my bed
I don't know her name
Someone's sleeping underneath my bed
I wonder who's to blame

I try so hard to make her understand
This cannot go on
I try so hard to make her understand
But she tells me I'm wrong

She stands beside me in the rain
But I turn the other way
I've got a secret in my heart

Music is my mistress and she keeps the girls away
They always seem to come along but never seem to say
Music is my mistress and she whispers in my ear
I don't need nobody else to tell me what to hear

Music is my mistress and she keeps the girls away
They always seem to come along but never seem to say
Music is my mistress and she whispers in my ear
I don't need nobody else to tell me what to hear
