I
see you plain as day
Up
close and far away
I
see you large as life
I
know you inside out
I
dreamed that we walked hand in hand you and I
In
the midst of a faceless and numberless crowd
And
we moved amongst them unseen and unheard
The
invisible man and the vanishing girl
In
my dream you hung your head
“
I wish they could see us” you said
And
just then the crowd was hushed
And
all eyes were turned on us
And
then they were pointing and shouting out loud
Crowding
around us and blocking our light
And
I wished in my dream that we’d stayed as we were
The
invisible man and the vanishing girl
Sometimes
the noise of the world in my ears
Is
so loud that it makes me ashamed
Sometimes
I wish it would all disappear
And
fade into infinite space
I see the hands on the clock
I
know that time never stops
I
see the lines on your face
I
see the traces of grey
But
as the disguises we wear fall away
I
see your face with new eyes every day
I
don’t care if we are in the eyes of the world
The
invisible man and the vanishing girl
