The bass rumble and chiming, echoey guitars of Manchester post-punkers the Chameleons captured in the band's glory days in 1984 at the Camden Palace, followed by a short product placement for Ribena.
Lyrics:
One cold damp evening
the world stood still
I watched as I held my breath
A silhouette I thought I knew
came through
Someone spoke to me
whispered in my ear
This fantasy's for you
Fantasies are in this year
My whole life passed before my eyes
I thought that what they say is true
I shed my skin and my disguise
and cold, numb and naked
I emerged from my cocoon
and a half remembered tune
played softly in my head
It said...
And he turned smiling and said....
He turned smiling and said:
I realise a miracle is due
I dedicate this melody to you
I realise a miracle is due
I dedicate this melody to you
But is this the stuff dreams are made of?
If this is the stuff dreams are made of
no wonder I feel like I'm floating on air
no wonder I feel like I'm floating on air
I realise a miracle is due
I dedicate this melody to you
But is this the stuff dreams are made of?
This is the stuff dreams are made of
No wonder I feel like I'm floating on air
No wonder I feel like I'm floating on air
No wonder I feel like I'm floating on air
And it feels like I'm everywhere
Tell you what it's like
It's like fate made the connection
you know how vital it is
Or when something slips through your fingers
you know how precious it is
Well you reach the point where you know
It's only your second skin
It's only your second skin
Let it in, let it in
