If melody is my destiny
Then what's left of me
I'll give to you

And if next to me
Is all that you need to be
Would you settle for fantasy
If it's the best you could do?

Can I have my cake?
Can I have you too?
Would you follow me?
Could I ask you to?

Would the world between us
Break these ties?
We've worked so hard to realize
Can a postcard say
What I see in your eyes?
Could I ever break away?

Would I be satisfied
And find peace inside
Rolling half my life
Over broken white lines?

Can I have my cake?
Can I have you too?
Would you follow me?
Could I ask you too?

Will I wake up one morning
And see your face
And the streaks on the window
That the rainstorm makes?
Could you bear all the weight
And the strength that it takes?
Could I ever break away?

Can I have my cake?
Can I have you too?
Would you follow me?
Could I ask you too?

Would the world between us
Break these ties?
We've worked so hard to realize
Can a postcard say
What I see in your eyes?
Could I ever break away?
