They'll be a time when everyone is left alone,
   and I'll have mine
   There is no doubt when everyone has worn me out and gone
   When everybody's had their fill, she'll be waiting,
   she's waiting still
   And though she doesn't know I know,
   I know she wouldn't mind
  
   Cause having someone believe in me, is all I need to know
   And standing all alone, is not the way I want to go
  
   And if I get to be a star, or maybe no where near that far
   I know that either way it doesn't matter much to her
   And if I'm on my dying bed and suddenly my life is bled away from me,
   I know she'll shed a tear because she cares
