there's no other way to say it
baby found out quite early in the game
that i belong to my songs
so she chose not to play it
now i walk down the street and i hear them call my name
but who sings a song for the tunesmith?
who sings a song for the tunesmith?
she could have changed my mind if anyone could do it
that's why i know i'll always be this way
and now that i've got fame
i find there's nothing to it
i remember how i left her when i hear the people say
but who sings a song for the tunesmith?
who sings a song for the tunesmith?
this hotel room is all i own
now that all my friends are gone
all alone at the break of day
i still can hear them say
but who sings a song for the tunesmith?
tell me who sings a song for the tunesmith?
but who sings a song for the tunesmith?
who sings a song for the tunesmith?
