Mr. X Lyrics by Ultravox
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
I found the perfect picture, of a perfect stranger.
It looked as if, it were taken in the forties sometime,
Judging by the style.

He could be a killer or a blind man with a cane,
Perhaps he died in a car crash, years ago.
Right now, it's impossible to tell.

I almost thought I saw him, standing, whistling on a bridge.
I asked him the time, but when he turned around,
I saw it wasn't him at all.

I'm still searching.
I'm still searching.

I saw him in an airport, while he was sitting on a wing.
And I waved to him, but I don't think he noticed me.
I've got a funny feeling I know who he is.

I found the perfect picture, of a perfect stranger.   It looked as if, it were taken in the forties sometime,   Judging by the style.      He could be a killer or a blind man with a cane,   Perhaps he died in a car crash, years ago.   Right now, it's impossible to tell.      I almost thought I saw him, standing, whistling on a bridge.   I asked him the time, but when he turned around,   I saw it wasn't him at all.      I'm still searching.   I'm still searching.      I saw him in an airport, while he was sitting on a wing.   And I waved to him, but I don't think he noticed me.   I've got a funny feeling I know who he is.      Mr. X (Repeat 14 times and fade)
