Imagine, the girls around town Assemble, the travellers some day Come ask him, where he came from Cause they've watched him Washing his face near the pond A curious boy and they wonder Where he came from He says I, I have seen The world's most beautiful places Still I feel As if I'm a walking machine Watching it all through a screen There ain't nothing in between to me This might as well not be real Imagine, the girls take him up on a hill It's an indigo night, there's a chill The boy's confused but he's still As they gather around him So many of them, they all sing About the pleasures of life And he cries, why can't I Sing along with some feeling Or some meaning It feels like I've always been blind I don't know why you girls are so kind But there are so many in line Whose lives aren't as lost as mine Now something happened there The smell of the grass Or maybe the air There was no more despair Just something about that night Maybe the girls, they lit some light And made everything right Cause he's never been more alive
