Intro 
===== 
I left a note each day under your pillow  
That I wrote in invisible ink  
All you have to do is breathe on them  
And you might read them written there in pink  
You might find out what's inside me  
Maybe it's something that might amuse  
As you watch my words appearing  
The fear will go  
And everything will flow

I'm hoping you don't throw my little notes away  
I wouldn't blame you  
After all, there's nothing they appear to say
