Invisible Boy by Tori Amos Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2014

[Verse 1]
You are, are not just
An invisible boy
If you want to be one
An invisible boy

[Chorus 1]
You could go undercover, 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?"

[Verse 2]
You are, are not just
An invisible boy
If you want to reach her
As an invisible boy
[Chorus 2]
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?"

[Verse 3]
You are, are not just
An invisible boy
If you want to be one
As an invisible boy

[Chorus 3]
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
[Outro]
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
Best invisible boy
