The Lonely One Lyrics - Singles - 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 

Shinny guitar hung on gold lamay 

And you, you were the lonely 1 

You were the lonely 1 

When you perform it's so intense 

When the critics pan I write in your defense 

I understand I'm 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 you're song just to hear you say that 

You, you're the lonely 1 

You are the lonely 1 

You, you're the lonely 1 

You are the lonely 1
