Pondering: Life is just a mirror, and what you see out there, you must first see inside of you. (Wally Amos)
This beautiful, beautiful song from the new Keane album, Perfect Symmetry moves me so much, I can’t explain it. It brings tears to my eyes for many different reasons. I am posting the lyrics here today, which is my birthday. Nothing else is more appropriate…
You Don’t See Me
(T. Rice-Oxley, T. Chaplin, R. Hughes)
Like a beautiful dawn, all made up and bright
Radiant people, in splintering light
All moving at the speed of life
Reflecting in each others’ eyes
But you’re moving so fast
Through this beautiful scene
You don’t see me
You don’t see me
Oh truly we are, a fortunate few
Who turn on your axis, revolve around you
All spinning outwards from your sun
Passing your reflection on
In your hurry to grasp
Everything you see
You don’t see me
You don’t see me
You don’t see me
No, you don’t see me
Such a beautiful view
I guess you’ve seen it all
But you
You see nothing at all
Such a beautiful view
Shining so bright
Shining so bright
So bright
All moving at the speed of life
Reflecting in each others’ eyes
But you’re moving with such irresistible speed
You don’t see me
No, you don’t see me
