Continental Drifters - Invisible Boyfriend Lyrics
Written by peter holsappleMain voice: peterProduced by continental driftersReleased on continental drifters (1995)In the back of the dimly lit roomStands a woman alone or so youd assumeBut there to her right, all through the nightStands her invisible boyfriend.I watch her turn and then smile at the airHalf way expectin to see him right thereAnd when hes not her face just dropsMeet the invisible boyfriend.The man of her dreams has returned to her dreamsBut shes by herself or so it would seemTo a casual observer like I am.Ask her a question, shell answer in kindBut all would agree shes got more on her mindLook in her eyes, watch how she triesTo hold herself back from cryin.Left with a memory and time on her handsLeft to a lifetime of unfinished plansLeft all alone by the one very manWho would never have left her alone.Sometimes I think I can see him myselfWith his arms wrapped around her with picture of healthGrinnin at her just as they wereBefore the impossible happened.The man of her dreams has returned to her dreamsBut shes by herself or so it would seemTo a casual observer like I am.But all that I know is the pains wont go byBy the days and the weeks and the months since he diedShe starts to leave and there by her sideGoes the invisible boyfriend.God, I wish I had known himHes the invisible boyfriend.
