John Foxx - The Hidden Man lyrics

change my name and change my clothes

stand in the light of forgotten windows

out of reach down the corridors

the hidden man

the hum of a forest and a lost perfume

the streets of a rainy afternoon

eyes like a tide of liquid blue

we talk about things I almost knew

the hidden man

just walk ahead in the winter haze

smoke a cigarette as the light decays

"the child is father to the man" he says-

silhouette glows in the sunsets blaze

the hidden man
