The Singer

She loved the singer

She loved the way he stood on stage

And played and just poured out his heart and soul

She loved the dreamer

The way the lights would hit his eyes and shine just like a record made of gold

She couldn't count the times she stayed up all night

Scared to death and prayin'

Wonderin' if he'd ever make it home

She loved the singer she just couldn't live the song

She loved the hero

Even more than that she loved the man

Without the mask when no one was around

She let him lean on

Her loving arms when he would call

He'd fall, she'd pick him up off of the ground

And in her dreams the face she sees is not the one taken with a camera

It's the one after the mask is taken off

She loved the singer she just couldn't live the song

Tryin' to hold him is like tryin' to hold a flame

She was always just one in a million screaming his name

She loved the poet

Words straight from his heart tear you apart

Then starts to make you fall right back in love

Every day the radio plays one familiar and it hits her just a little too strong

She loved the singer she just couldn't live the song

Tryin' to hold him is like tryin' to hold a flame

She was always one in a million screaming his name

Screaming his name

She loved the singer

Man she loved the dreamer

She loved the singer she just couldn't live the song
