Heaven be praised My press have come for me And I don't want to be free My public lust to see
Soon there will come a time Maybe this is the tune They're looking out They're looking out for me
Maybe this is the time It's finally come for me The crowds are here But are they here for me
Heaven be praised The press have come for me Just a slip of the tongue The headlines run again
Don't look now I think it's a camera A smile, a kiss and a wave As I'm carried away
And they all know As I grow old I will always be here for you now I will play the fool for you all I will always live here with my crowd And you will see That I will please
Heaven be praised My press have come for me And I don't want to be free The public lust to see Heaven be praised
Maybe this is the time It's finally come for me They're looking out And they looking out for me
Maybe this is the time It's finally come for me The crowds are here But are they here for me
Heaven be praised My press have come for me And I don't want to be free My public lust to see
Don't look now I think it's a camera A drunken stumble, some flesh As they drag me away
And they all know As I grow old I will always be here for you now I will play the fool for you all I will always live here with my crowd And you will see That I will please
You and I we have a need You and I we have a need to fil our lives I need love you need my pain Drink and drugs the men who leave again Feel my pain (The looks they fade, the will is weak) Feel my pain (Body is old but the surgeons knife)
Pray for me And I mistake for you
You and I we have a need You and I we have a need to fil our lives I need love you need my pain Fame it fades never to come again Feel my pain (No curtain calls, a life so still) Feel my pain (Mind so numb, lose the will)
Pray for me Pray for me And my mistakes my friends
Laughing the day away, hoping the day Crying the day away Fame will live again My fame will live again
Spend the day in a wam safe place Re-live the life, re-live the life, living Spend the day at the studio place Re-live the life, re-live the life, living Spend my life in this wam safe place Re-live the life, re-live the life, living Spend my life at this chosen pace Re-live the life, re-live the life, living
Laughing the day away, making the day Living the life once more Fame is here to stay My fame its here today
Art mimics life To hell with the rest And Daddy says that he knows beat Do as you are told Don't think you're old The secret never told He leaves me
My leading man, he's all dressed in white Don't tell abouit our secret nights Do as I am told Doesn't mind I'm old Secrets never told He loves me
People around Like Angel and Damned I dance and I sing My life once more
People around Like Angel and Damned I dance and I sing They love me now
