Robyn Hitchcock - Transparent Lovers lyrics

she saw the outline of transparent lovers

in a hotel room underneath the covers

who should i see but the transparent lovers

why is she built that way i soon discovered

try to embrace her your transparent lover

try to belong to her you won't recover

see your reflected in your transparent lover

gone lord, gone, gone

fade boy, fade

gone lord, gone, gone

faintly above the cliffs they held each other

one is the angel, one's the transparent lovers

your going to lose her like you lost your mother

but you'll remember your transparent lover

all men are killers or they're killers brothers

i'm going to die for my transparent lover

my transparent lover

gone lord, gone, gone

fade boy, fade

gone lord, gone, gone

summery phantom as she fade she hovers

i'm going to find her my transparent lover

my transparent lover
