Meaning

In 2010, in Paris Dolores introduced the song telling : “It’s a song about, ok written, when you’ve got lots of small little ones running around making you get up on Sunday when you wanna stay in bed ‘avec la gueule de bois’ […] you have to go to the park, this one is euh… it all comes around and they grow up and you get your freedom back.” (Zénith, Paris, March 22nd 2010)

Lyrics

There was a game we used to play
We would hit the town on Friday night
And stay in bed until Sunday
We used to be so free
We were living for the love we had and
Living not for reality

It was just my imagination
Just my imagination
Just my imagination...

There was a time I used to pray
I have always kept my faith in love
It's the greatest thing from the man above
The game I used to play
I've always put my cards upon the table
Let it never be said that I'd be unstable

It was just my imagination
Just my imagination
Just my imagination...

There is a game I like to play
I like to hit the town on Friday night
And stay in bed until Sunday
We'll always be this free
We will be living for the love we have
Living not for reality

It's not my imagination
It's not my imagination
It's not my imagination
It was... not my imagination
not my imagination
not my imagination
Play with the song, fill the gaps
