They say music is a medicine; But me, I’ve used it like a crutch,
I like to hide beneath the bright lights, I’m sure I love the stage too much
Yeah, I’d unplug the power, but I don’t care much for the dark
I’d blend in to my surroundings, but I need to make my mark.
Well I could sing and I might impress you; play you a song and make you want to stay
But what if you knew that I was nothin’ special? Would you love me anyway?
I’ve given up some good years, and the bad ones took their toll.
Yeah I was searchin’ for salvation, and I nearly lost my soul.
It’s not a dirty little secret; it’s just a simple fact of life,
Yeah, we all desire love and Lord knows, we’ll pay a handsome price.
Well I could sing and I might impress you; play you a song and make you want to stay
But what if you knew that I was nothin’ special? Would you love me anyway?
Someday down the road, I’m gonna lose my momentum; one day I’ll run out of things to say,
That’s when you’ll know that I was nothin’ special, but would you love me anyway.
I’ve rehearsed my lines a thousand times
and my timing’s get’n good
I’ve made it hard to get to know me, but I wish that someone would.
Well I could sing and I might impress you; play you a song and make you want to stay
But what if you knew that I was nothin’ special? Would you love me anyway?
Someday down the road I’m gonna lose my momentum; one day I’ll run out of things to say,
That’s when you’ll know that I was nothin’ special, but would you love me anyway.
