Superstar Lyrics
[Verse One]
Long ago, and oh so far away
I fell in love with you
Before the second show
Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really here
It's just the radio
[Chorus]
Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby
I love you - I really do
[Verse Two]
Loneliness, is such a sad affair
And I can hardly wait
To be with you again
What to say, to make you come again?
Come back to me again
And play your sad guitar
[Chorus]
Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby
I love you - I really do
Long ago, and oh so far away
I fell in love with you
Before the second show
Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really here
It's just the radio
[Chorus]
Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby
I love you - I really do
[Verse Two]
Loneliness, is such a sad affair
And I can hardly wait
To be with you again
What to say, to make you come again?
Come back to me again
And play your sad guitar
[Chorus]
Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby
I love you - I really do
Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby
I love you - I really do
You said you'd be coming back again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby
I love you - I really do
