Lyrics
Held Captive In A Fantasy
I found a place to be loved
In the eyes of a stranger
Now I know where love is
But I can't get there from here
I stumbled into a fool's paradise
And hung all my dreams on a star
Hope believed in the dream
And the illusion grew in my heart
Chorus: Held captive in a fantasy; lost between now and then
The void in my heart is crying
For all that could have been
Held captive in a fantasy; with no beginning and no end
All the love that I imagined
Just blowing in the wind
Love won't answer my letters
And love won't answer the phone
I climbed the mountain of hope
And I'm still here all alone, all alone
Bridge: Haunted by the ghost of tantalizing eyes
Seduced by the delusion, holding a need that cries
Chorus: Held captive in a fantasy; lost between now and then
Wanting a happy ever-after
And all that could have been
Held captive in a fantasy; with no beginning and no end
All the love that I imagined
Just blowing in the wind
Bridge: No more chasing rainbows in never-never land
The road goes nowhere, and I have already been there
Chorus: Held captive in a fantasy; lost between now and then
The void in my heart is crying
For all that could have been
Held captive in a fantasy; with no beginning and no end
All the love that I imagined
Just blowing in the wind
Tag: Sadly, I've reached the end of my hope
I've got nothing left to believe
Just the reflections of a sadness
And a void in my heart that screams
"I NEED THAT LOVE TO LIVE!" I need that love to live.
