lyrics

In the crowd by the railway line
Loneliness is a friend of mine
Your face stares out at me from the wall
A breath of wind as the tube rattles by
The flickering image of your eyes
Makes me believe that I could hear your call
But I know that it's an impossible love

Up the escalator I seem to slide
To the reality of the world outside
But your image is all that I can see
I'm in a daze in a daytime dream
Wishing you were here in this scene
But the heartache is real to me
But I know that it's an impossible love

You're just a picture on a wall
There's no reason to love you at all
Make-up kept your imperfections out of sight
They used an airbrush to set you right
Impossible.....

You're out there somewhere just living your way
Unaware of what you've done to me today
I can only hope to forget your face
Cos I know that it's an impossible love

It's an impossible love
