Your simple song, a small creation
Always needing validation
Your pouty face, your great photos
Without them baby, who would notice?
We met once, we were ___, back stage in dallas
Got your phone number, what a good kisser
I left her for Tampa, and I missed her
But on stage you weren't strong
I don't recall any songs
But when you sang you hit the notes
I'll give you that, you didn't choke
And you looked so good
Like a actress from Hollywood
And your eyes they glistened
But no one listened
One day you'll be forty
Trust me baby it ain't sporty
You'll be pleased to be reviewed
Cause there's always something new
Someone young, press-friendly, you'll be searching
Are there any?
Travel hard, around the globe
But does anyone know?
Moderately talented young woman,
Dreams that she once had
You're a dream, a burning star
The way you sing and play guitar
The way your words cut through
You cast a spell on a room
But your eyes are far
And you hide many scars
Lost friends, ex-lovers, hidden dads, buried mothers
I could only love you like a friend, Dark Soldier
cos I got someone else and you're older
I didn't mean to go alone
But god I love your songs
What a night, what a moment
But don't read it wrong
Moderately talented young woman vs the
Exceptionally talented old man.
