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
