I'm invisible Nobody knows my name In the crowd no-one sees me I'm in shadowland An invisible man They don't know I'm here Look straight through me Go back to their beer I'm in shadowland They say you can be Anything that you want Rock star, writer Debutante Then you get a job There's rent to pay The dream must wait For another day Well it waits and waits and waits and waits But it never goes away You keep it safe in your bottom drawer And wait for your big day And when at last you get your chance You take it straight away You have a toot and grab a suit And lean out there and say Give me the limelight, give me applause Put my name in lights above the venue doors Put me in the papers I'm leaving shadowland I'm heading for the spotlight At the front of the band Yeah, give me the limelight, give me applause Put my name in lights above the venue doors I live the dream almost every night I'm centre-stage and it feels so right Then in the morning Something's wrong I've woken up and the dream has gone I'm in shadowland Yeah back in shadowland I'm invisible Invisible Invisible Invisible Invisible In shadowland I'm invisible
