Cover For Me

The weather forecast says it'll be chilly tonight
Tonight of all nights
Turn on the news, the traffic's gonna be tight
Tonight of all nights

I know, I know, I know
They did wrong to you
But the blame goes to you the same
I know, I know, I know
It's a shame; it's true
That we are in lust in something without a name

Drop the spotlights
Down, down, down, drop it down
You know who the star is tonight
Drop the spotlights
Down and down and down
To the point where it meets no end

The crowd stares at you; so sullen
In fright, in fright
They see your sweat, your heart, your lie, in sight

You know, you know, you know
You did wrong to them
And the blame should've gone to you
You know, you know, you know
That you angered them
And there's nothing to cover that, no matter what you do

Oh, drop the spotlights
Down, down, down, drop it down
You know who the star is tonight
Drop the spotlights
Down and down and down
To the point where it meets no end

Again, it meets no end again
Again, it meets no end

I sing this song, this song
For you, for you
I should be up there on stage 
With you, with you

Drop the spotlights
Down, down, down, drop it down
You know who the stars are tonight
Drop the spotlights
Down and down and down
To the point where it meets no end
Oh, where'd she go, your most loyal friend?
