Lyrics

Ha-ha... now this one's crazy, man
It's like my life story right here
Real serious
Check it out
She would sit and listen for hours as I played guitar, yo
Sing my songs up on the radio while she was in her car, yo
Her interest would grow, she came to my shows
She knew every note, each line that I wrote (Oh, oh, oh)
And suddenly she was in love
In time, I met this little girl, was attracted to her ways, yo
What took years for some couples to build, for us it just took days, yo
So as time went on, I wrote her more songs
Not knowing those songs will soon come along
Leaving me in pain, oh...
Show must go on (Show must go on)
Unfortunately (Oh-oh-oh)
I'm all alone (Baby)
Up from my dreams (Because)
'Cause she couldn't hear me over the music (Oh no, no)
Didn't hear me over the music (Baby girl)
Couldn't hear me over the music (No, no)
She never really knew my song
Man, I'm just... I'm just tryna keep it honest, you know
But there's like... there's consequences with that
Where, you know, we make... make love and write a song about it
But... you know, we fight... and write a song about it
As time went on, she started to see I was not Superman, no
I may have a gift for these words but I'm no more than a man, so
My songs about joy, my songs about pain
She loved them the same, but to me she changed, oh
Holding on got so hard
I would be up in the studio
Some nights she slept alone, oh (Nights she slept alone)
She'll get mad, fill with jealousy
'Cause making love to these poems, oh
Now when I do shows, it seems she gets steamed
As if I have flings with those girls that scream out my name
And she used to do the same
Show must go on (Show must go on)
Unfortunately (Unfortunately)
I'm all alone (Baby, I'm all alone)
Up from my dreams (Because)
'Cause she couldn't hear me over the music (Oh)
Didn't hear me over the music (Oh, no, no)
Couldn't hear me over the music (Baby)
She never really knew my song
Show must go on (Show must go on)
Unfortunately (Baby, don't you know, oh)
I'm all alone (Baby, don't you know, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhhh)
Up from my dreams (Because)
'Cause she couldn't hear me over the music (Couldn't hear me over the music)
Didn't hear me over the music (Didn't hear me over the music)
Couldn't hear me over the music (Couldn't hear me over the music)
She never really knew my song (Never did know my song)
If I find love tomorrow
Hoping it don't follow
The path I've been lost on too many times,..
Show must go on (Baby)
Unfortunately (Oh-ohhh, oh)
I'm all alone (I'm all alone)
Up from my dreams (Baby, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
'Cause she couldn't hear me over the music (Couldn't hear me over the music)
Didn't hear me over the music (Couldn't hear me over the music)
Couldn't hear me over the music (Couldn't hear me over the music)
She never really knew my song (Never really knew my song)
Couldn't hear me over the music (Couldn't hear me over the music)
Didn't hear me over the music (Couldn't hear me over the music)
Couldn't hear me over the music (Couldn't hear me over the music)
She never really knew my song (Never really knew my song)
Oh, no, no, no
Oh, no, no, no
Hey, hey, hey, no
