Superstar Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Long ago, and oh, so far away
I fell in love with you before the second show
Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really here, it's just the radio
[Chorus]
Don't you remember, you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh baby
I love you, I really do
[Verse 2]
Loneliness is a such a sad affair
And I can hardly wait to be with you again
What to say, to make you come again? (Ooh, baby)
Come back to me again (Oo, baby)
And play your sad guitar
[Chorus]
Don't you remember, you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh baby
I love you, I really do
Don't you remember, you told me you loved me baby?
You said you'd be coming back this way again, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh baby
I love you, I really do
