I played my guitar for you one night,
Your eyes opened so very very wide,
It was clear to see that I turned on a light,
You confided a smile from deep inside.

And so I play my guitar every single day,
Just hoping for one more chance
To turn your love my way.

I guess I’m just going to have to be
A big star on your TV,
It’s the only way you will hear me play,
It’s the only way you will ever see me.

You got on that plane and flew across the seas
I hope you obtain your noble expertise,
I waited a year for your return,
Each song in my soul for you I burned.

And so I play my guitar every single day,
Just hoping for one more chance
To turn your love my way.

I guess I’m just going to have to be
A big star on your TV,
It’s the only way you will hear me play,
It’s the only way you will ever see me.

You came home we met once cordially,
But the time wasn’t right for a song from me,
You lowered this cloud from the sky on me,
Said you would wed this guy you see.

And so I play my guitar every single day,
Just hoping for one more chance
To turn your love my way.

I guess I’m just going to have to be
A big star on your TV,
It’s the only way you will hear me play,
It’s the only way you will ever see me
