Sweet Invisibility - Hue & Cry

The wind is howling hard outside

It cleaves us silently apart

Your permanence it reassures

My insecurity it starts

I’d worry for the whole damn thing

If I was slashed with fear and wants

But I am slick and safe with you

Free from little cricket taunts

Compared to all the powers that be

Our love’s invisibility

The lights are searching for us, dear

But we’re as black as holes down here

Compare to all the powers that be

Our love is sweet invisibility

We’re lying back on the cold iron

River and summer surround us

We are dreaming oh so bad

On the old and industrious

Look up high for the big man!

Scraping the clouds away

One strong arm is all he’s got

One strong arm — sold and bought!

Compared to all the powers that be

Our love’s invisibility

The lights are searching for us, dear

But we’re as black as holes down here

Compare to all the powers that be

Our love is sweet invisibility

Compare to all the powers that be

Our love is sweet invisibility
