We met in fancy dress, that's how it was to be But I never was prepared to cope with all your idiosyncracies And in the cold light of the day, things don't always look the same I wonder, were you really ill, or did you always look that way?
It was here in the outer limits It was oh, such a long, long time ago I was so happy, happy in the outer limits I just never wanted to go
What she collected in glass jars, that was (all of her and not mine ?) Because she (spent all of her evenings ?), ??? the rest of us ??? Her strange habits, her strange hobbies made strange noises in the night, Oh, I guess I knew all along something wasn't right
(chorus)
I asked her to change her ways, but she didn't even try I used to always tell her, "look, look, I'm just a, an ordinary guy" But then they caught her, they questioned me, and I had to testify But I used to always tell, "I'm just an average guy", no, no
Oh no Please don't take me away No I didn't know what she was I (???) she was I only loved her
