Nikki W. - Transparent Hands

I have transparent hands
and an empty heart
a sad soul and a troubled start
I see the world
through opaque eyes
The world sees me
but I'm much too shy
Someone like you is
much too wonderful
Lovely for someone
As sad as me
And it seems like yesterday
I was staring at a lonely face
I've been searching for someone
Someone like me
who was out of place
And you
You were worth the wait
When walls are high
they don't break themselves
When I fall down I land in hell
I see the word through iron gates
The world sees me
but I'm locked away
Someone like you is
much too wonderful
Lovely for someone
As sad as me
And it seems like yesterday
I was staring at a lonely face
I've been searching for someone
Someone like me
who was out of face
And you
You were worth the wait
You were worth the wait
I have transparent hands
and an empty heart
And it seems like yesterday
I was staring at a lonely face
I've been searching for someone
Someone like me
who was out of place
And you
You were worth the wait
