By Herself - Unplugged

Tell me of last nights big show
Was she bright and entertaining?
I know her as a dynamo
Just watch her flame, she's not to blame
Catch her while the moon pretends
Morning brings a different creature
You'll never be much more than friends
Who could survive her blinding drive

I had wanted her
I had dreams for us
But she has to do this by herself

She looks inside her pocketbook
Straightens up her hair and makeup
She baits you then she has you hooked
It's no surprise - it's in her guise
Take her for a little spin
Her smile and laughter make it easy
But who's the fool when it caves in
She gets her way - she never stays

I had wanted her
I had dreams for us
But she has to do this by herself

Like a flying fish she appears above the surface
Only for a moment, but she'll never be the one

It's been years, and all is good
The last time that I heard about her
She made it out to Hollywood
They have her game
It's all so plain

I had wanted her
I had dreams for us
But she has to do this by herself
