Music man

If I was a betting man, I'd bet everything I've got,

Some people say I'm crazy, but I'll bet I'm not.

If you were a crazy girl, we could stay up all night,

We could go get flowers, in the morning light.

If I were a wiser man, I'd tell you everything I know,

But that could take awhile , so let's make it up as we go,

If you were a friend of mine, I think you would help me out,

But you are so far away, I guess I'll do without.

But I'm just a music man, music coming out from inside,

And once it starts, there's no place to hide.

If this was a better world, maybe we could all get along,

Who knows maybe everyone, would sing the same song,

But that's not the way it is, and it makes me kind'a sad,

But when I look around, you know I'm really glad...

That I'm just a music man, music coming out from inside,

And once it starts, there's no place to hide.

If I had the time to dream, and you had the time to hope,

Maybe we could get somewhere, maybe we could cope,

If you could look through me, like I wasn't even there,

Then you would see the song, you'd see how much I care....

It's written on the heart of a music man,
he keeps reaching out for you,

And you know it sends shivers down his spine,

When the music comes through!
