lyrics

IMAGINARY FRIEND

I have made a myth of you
In the pages of my mind
I have been so enthralled with your story
I’ve become nearly blind

You’re the voices in my head
That whisper words that no one’s said
In the silence of the telephone
You’re the ghost that haunts the hall
You’re the shadow on the wall
You are with me when I’m alone

You have been my imaginary friend
And I’ve realised I don’t know you in the end
You have been my imaginary friend

It has been a while since I saw you
Face to face, eye to eye
I have read your messages over and over
Wondering why

Memories of when we met
Of all the things we did and said
Are fading black and white
Your face has become a blur
My eyes aren’t focused anymore
You are fading with the night

You have been my imaginary friend
And I’ve realised I don’t know you in the end
You have been my imaginary friend

When I looked at you
I felt that we could be one and two

You have been my imaginary friend
And I’ve realised I don’t know you in the end
You have been my imaginary friend
