Over here he stands alone
His heart turning into stone
He's been forever
Trying to coax
The singer to
Sing a few notes

But the singer keeps
Pushing, pushing away
Not listening to what
He has to say

Now he's slowly
Slipping over the edge
His heart is breaking
Just like the ledge

He's been standing on
For so long
He just wanted to hear
A song

The singer had to
Take, take it away
Take it away
Take the music away
Take, take it away
Take it away
Take the music away

He sees the singer
In the crowd
From a distance
He wonders aloud

Why his shadow is
Dancing 'round him
He just wants the
Singer to sing

Now he wonders if
He's still worth the song
What if in vain
He waited for so long

But he still
Stands his ground
Hoping that the singer
Would come, come around

He would never say never
But no one can wait forever

The singer had to
Take, take it away
Take it away
Take the music away
Take, take it away
Take it away
Take the music away

Faded, like a dream
It faded, like a dream
And maybe
It was just a dream
It faded

The singer had to
Take, take it away
Take it away
Take the music away
Take, take it away
Take it away
Take the music away









"The singer sings
For someone else"
