The Lonely 1 Lyrics - Wilco

After the show 

You walked right past 

Arms reached out 

For your autograph 

And as you flashed 

Your backstage pass 

I caught your eye 

With a camera's flash 

When the band came out 

They stood behind you 

Cymbals crashed 

The lights went blue 

You stood alone 

In the halo's haze 

Shining guitar hung on 

Gold lame 

And you 

You were the lonely one 

You were 

The lonely one 

When you perform 

It's so intense 

When the critics pan 

I write in your defense 

I understand I am just a fan 

I'm just a fan 

When I get home 

I turn off the alarm 

I've checked the phone 

No messages on 

I play the ones from yesterday 

I play your song 

Just to hear you say that you 

You're the lonely one 

You are 

The lonely one 

You 

You're the lonely one 

You are the lonely one
