Invisible Man
David & Jad Fair Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You can hardly wait to tell all your friends
How his kisses taste sweet like wine
And how he always makes your heart skip a beat
Every time he walks by
And if you feeling down
He'll pick you up
He'll hold you close
when you're makin' love

He's every thing you've been dreaming of
Oh Baby...

I wish you'd look at me that way
Your beautiful eyes lookin' deep into mine
Telling me more than any words could say
But you don't even know I'm alive
Baby to you all I am
Is the invisible man

You probably spend hours on the phone
Talkin' 'bout nothing at all
It doesn't matter what the conversation
Just as long as he called
Lost in a love so real
And so sincere
You wipe away each other's tears
Your face lights up
Whenever he appears

I wish you'd look at me that way
Your beautiful eyes lookin' deep into mine
Telling me more than any words could say
But you don't even know I'm alive

Baby to you all I am
Is the invisible man
