La chanson évoque la solitude et l'isolement de deux personnages, une jeune femme dans un bar et un homme âgé dans la rue. Elle dépeint la tristesse de ces âmes invisibles qui vivent dans l'ombre, attendant désespérément une reconnaissance ou un simple regard bienveillant. La jeune fille sourit sans but apparent, tandis que l'homme, délaissé, tente de se redresser sans que quiconque remarque sa détresse. Dans une ville indifférente, ces vies se croisent sans jamais véritablement se rencontrer, soulignant un profond manque de compassion.
