Everything you ever wanted to know about me, my musical ambition and my definition of love... with a silly, singalong chorus thrown in for good measure!
lyrics
I don't care about all those bright lights.
I don't care about all that fame.
I just want you to sit and listen
close enough to know my name.
I've got lots of stories to tell you,
things I've gone and said and done.
My song is sweet and soft and simple,
perfect for a crowd of one.
And if the words get in the way,
or I run out of things to say,
please just laugh and clap and sing along,
ee-oh-ee-oh-ay.
Ee-oh-ee-oh-ee-oh bum bay...
Now you know I've got no answers
just some silly made up fun.
I can't promise all you're after
but I'll be your crowd of...
If you've got the pen, then I've got the paper.
If you've got the rhyme, then I've got the song.
If lovin's a crime, then I'll pull a caper,
just to keep you near, to make you my crowd of one.
Ee-oh-ee-oh-ee-oh bum bay...
Sometimes I get all caught up in
talk of fear and not enough love.
I just need to sit and listen.
I need to be a crowd of...
ee-oh-ee-oh-ee-oh-ee-oh
ah-ee-oh
ee-oh-ee-oh-ee-oh-ee-oh....
