Well I'm lying in bed sweating staring at the ceiling,
In my brain I have painted a beautiful picture of you,
I'm not even going to try to fall asleep tonight,
I don't want to lost the picture in my mind, in my mind.
[ Chorus ]
Then I close my eyes and quickly drift away
Magically transported to another time and place hold away
Magically transported to another time and place
Hold you in my arms and we go whirling through the air
Going all four directions, heading straight for nowhere
I wake up in cold sweat come to grips with reality
Take a deep breath lay back down wearing my badge of infamy
When the bulb in my nightlight flickers, flickers, flickers and dies,
I'm left alone, staring at my ceiling once again
[ Chorus ]
It's my nocturnal emission
In my brain I have painted a beautiful picture of you,
I'm not even going to try to fall asleep tonight,
I don't want to lost the picture in my mind, in my mind.
[ Chorus ]
Then I close my eyes and quickly drift away
Magically transported to another time and place hold away
Magically transported to another time and place
Hold you in my arms and we go whirling through the air
Going all four directions, heading straight for nowhere
I wake up in cold sweat come to grips with reality
Take a deep breath lay back down wearing my badge of infamy
When the bulb in my nightlight flickers, flickers, flickers and dies,
I'm left alone, staring at my ceiling once again
[ Chorus ]
It's my nocturnal emission
