Lyrics for The Lonely 1
After the show you walked right past Arms reached out for your autograph And as you flashed your backstage pass I caught your eye with a camera's flash When the band came out, they stood behind you Cymbals crashed, the lights went blue You stood alone in the halo's haze Shiny guitar hung on gold lamé And you, you were the lonely 1 You were the lonely 1 When you perform, it's so intense When the critics pan, I write in your defense I understand I'm just a fan, I'm just a fan When I get home I turn off the alarm I've checked the phone, no messages on I play the ones from yesterday I play your song just to hear you say that You, you're the lonely 1 You are the lonely 1 You, you're the lonely 1 You are the lonely 1
