Backstage I'm lonely, backstage I cry

You've gone away and each night I seem to die a little

I'm famous now I've come so far
A famous fool I let love go
I didn't know I'd miss you so

Hating myself since I let you say goodbye

Bridge:

Db [N.C.]
Every night a different room
Bb [N.C.]
Every night a different club

And yet I'm lonely all the time

When I sign my autograph

When I hold an interview

Can't get you out of my mind

Come back my love come back to me
I need you now so desperately
What good is fame it's just a game
I'd give it all to be the same

Your smiling face waiting backstage for me
