about

Steve Swindells singing live and playing a Steinway Concert Grand piano (circa 1942).

See a stunning live version (with the lyrics slightly altered to fit the occasion), with Daniel Pearce singing at the sold-out UNHCR 'Voices For Darfur' benefit concert at The Royal Albert Hall in London in December 2004, with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra( arranged by Cliff Masterson) and the London Community Gospel Choir (arranged by Steve Swindells).

lyrics

You lived up to expectations when you walked out of my life,
I accept your resignation, it won’t cut me like a knife.

All that hatred that you harbour may not be pointed at me,
but as your attitude got harder, I just had to set you free.

I feel no pain.
You cannot hurt me.
I am invisible,
dancing naked in the rain.

I feel no pain.
You cannot touch me.
You’re in the wilderness,
I am a warrior again -
I feel no pain.

How could love be so oppressive when I gave you everything?
You would never be expressive, mostly cold and questioning.

The flesh was always willing but the spirit somehow died.
Tell me what did all the killing - all your anger and your pride?

I feel no pain.
You cannot hurt me.
I am invisible,
dancing naked in the rain.

I feel no pain.
You cannot touch me.
You’re in the wilderness,
I am a warrior again -
I feel no pain.
