She was so enticed by his smile.
She was so unaffected by his dream.
For his dream of her was just not possible.
She was so not that girl.
It was just one of those things that happened or didn't happen.
A strand of golden hair-tangled like the words of a song, like a spider's web
Then he said...
-CHORUS-
Everybody loves you
But you're so alone.
Everybody knows your name
But you can't find your way home.
No one really knows you
I'm the only one.
She was so enchanted by his voice.
She was so shaken by his words.
His plan for her was just not possible.
She had no words.
Boy it isn't just that we cause each other such pain at home or on the stage.
Sometimes was heavenly... sometimes was too heavy.
I looked the other way.
-CHORUS-
Don't come here again unless fear of fire leaves you cold.
And the cold makes you tired.
If you feel at all-it's all about desire.
About when you were true.
About a bird on a wire... that was you.
She does still hear him all nite long.
The same song over and over... it heals her heart.
No voice of a stranger could play that part.
Broke her heart... broke her heart.
-CHORUS-
