In The Wings

In The Wings
She was standing in the wings that night
i saw her weeping before the lights
blinded my eyes
yes, blinded my eyes
I saw her taking of a wedding band
and whisper to the stage door man
but i was high
yes, i was too high
High on the sound
as the crowd called out my name
i though that i could take it
i paid my dues to make it
to me it was a foolish game
But without you, girl (without you, girl)
nothing is the same (ooh-ooh-ooh)
the song i write is pity
the song i sing are empty
i need you by my side again
i need a friend
Damn the critics and the rolling stone
promotion men and agency gnomes
my mind is blown
i'm so alone
Wind me up and i can dance and sing
like a puppet on a string
i play my guitar
they say i'm a star
Who am i fooling
what does it all mean
the audience is screaming
celebrities i'm meeting
the money and the limousines
'cause without you, girl (without you, girl)
nothing is the same (ooh-ooh-ooh)
the song i write is pity
the song i sing are empty
i need you by my side again
i need a friend
