If You Can See Me Lyrics - David Bowie

1 Oh, oh, oh

2 If you can see me, I can see you

3 I could wear your new blue shoes

4 I should wear your old red dress

5 And walk to the crossroads, so take this knife

6 And meet me across the river

7 Just chutes and ladders and this is the kiss

8 American Anna, fantastic Alsatian

9 From nowhere to nothing

10 And I go way back

11 Children swarm like thousands of bugs

12 Towards the lights the beacons above the hill

13 The stars to the West, the South, the North

14 And to the East

15 Now you could say I've got a gift of sorts

16 A fear of rear windows and swinging doors

17 A love of violence and dread of sighs

18 If you can see me, I can see you

19 If you can see me, I can see you

20 I have seen these bairns wave their fists at God

21 Swear to destroy the beasts, stamping the ground

22 In their excitement for tomorrow

23 I could wear your new blue shoes

24 I should wear your old red dress

25 And walk to the crossroads, so take this knife

26 And meet me across the river

27 I will take your lands and all that lays beneath

28 The dust of cold flowers, prison of dark of ashes

29 I will slaughter your kind who descend from belief

30 I am the spirit of greed, a lord of theft

31 I'll burn all your books and the problems they make

32 If you can see me, I can see you

33 If you can see me
