Everybody Loves Me

a thousand people
came to hear me to play
my lonely songs last night
i´d still be singing
if i didn´t have to catch
an early flight
the crowd kept shouting out
for more and more
i thought they´d never
let me leave floor

everybody loves me
everybody loves me
everybody loves me
but the only one
i want to love me is you

i see your lovely smile
in every face
that´s shinning just for me
but
there´s a trace of tears
beneath the veil
of every smile i see
i´d give up all my fame
for your sweet kiss
there´s really nothing here
that i would miss

everybody loves me
everybody loves me
everybody loves me
but the only one
i want to love me is you

there was a time when i
would only sing my songs for you
they painted pictures
of a bright and special world we knew
now that my songs
are colored blue and grey
the whole world seems
to love them more this way
to love them more this way
