You are |
|
Are not just |
|
An invisible boy |
|
But if you want to be one |
|
An invisible boy |
|
You could go under cover |
|
Make your great escape |
|
Go where only eagles dare go |
|
Without needing wings |
|
Jump on a triumph like Steve McQueen |
|
It's time you lived your dream |
|
"But how can this be" you say |
|
"Won't it all fade away |
|
If I'm only made out of clay |
|
Only made out of clay" |
|
You are |
|
Are not just |
|
An invisible boy |
|
But if you want to reach her |
|
As an invisible boy |
|
You could sit down beside her |
|
Hold her as she cries |
|
Call upon your friends the cloud riders |
|
To unlock the sky |
|
Then wave to the snowdrops skating by |
|
Catch the laughter from her eyes |
|
"But how can this be" you say |
|
"Won't it all fade away |
|
If I'm only made out of clay |
|
Only made out of clay" |
|
You are |
|
Are not just |
|
An invisible boy |
|
But if you want to be one |
|
As an invisible boy |
|
You could cross over to the |
|
Great Pub in the Sky |
|
There you'll find him listening to a lost soul |
|
Pouring them a pint |
|
Then you'll know you have missed his advice |
|
And he'll look you in the eye |
|
"If you want to be" he'll say |
|
"To be only partially a boy that's made out of clay |
|
We're all made out of clay |
|
But not you |
|
You are my best invisible boy |
|
And if you want to be this |
|
An invisible boy |
|
Then only those who can see you |
|
Will be better off because they can |
|
See and believe in |
|
My best invisible boy |
|
My best invisible boy" |
