verse 1 I’m older now, but I feel the same I’m not the same Self-sacrifice, I’ll sing it twice, I’ll sing it twice, Keeping myself alive, facing down the fear, thinking What’s the big idea, and I don’t know who I am but lover cover your ears, you light me up with your smile, you light me up with your smile verse 2 Black tambourine, you ought to know what I mean you can’t be part of the scene Shift your paradigm, some people stand in the line Just to stand in the line Keeping myself alive, facing down the fear, thinking What’s the big idea, and I don’t know who I am but lover cover your ears, you light me up with your smile, you light me up with your smile Bridge And when you tell me you’re lonely Isn’t everyone lonely? Noooooo! Solo Keeping myself alive, facing down the fear, thinking What’s the big idea, and I don’t know who I am but lover cover your ears, you light me up with your smile, you light me up with your smile Bridge And when you tell me you’re lonely Isn’t everyone lonely? And when you tell me you’re lonely Isn’t everyone lonely? Noooooo! Outro solo
