lyrics

I wear your picture on a chain 'round my neck
I've got your songs stuck in my head
look at your poster up on my wall
and know I don't know you, no I don't know you at all

But you've always been there when no one else was
no one to love me, no one for me to love
so I wear your t-shirt and I read your book
and know I don't know what you've seen,
just how you look

How does it feel to be all alone?
listening to yourself on the radio
all the good times you were by my side
wonder where you really were

I know that we'd probably not get along
wouldn't have much to say
wouldn't have much in common
I wear your t-shirt next to my skin
and know I don't know where you are
just where you've been

But oh when the lights go out
tell me who's gonna save me from myself
when the storms on a roll
and friends have all gone home
tell me who's gonna sing me off to bed?

I know that we all sometimes feel alone
from the day that you die to the day that you're born
I've seen your picture and I've heard your name
and know I don't know you
but I love you just the same
