Son of a Famous Man

You were born on an eerie night

Moon rode high on a silver cloud

An air of tension in a room of wonder

She held you gently but you cried out loud

Your old man called from across the sea

The search or fame had taken him away

Out in the heat were a thousand voices

Singing his praise and making him great

You were born to be the lonely one

He was reaching out for number one

He's so busy with all his plans

Got no time for his greatest fan

His son, son of a famous man

Keeps on giving you alibis

You keep wearing the same disguise

The son, son of a famous man

You were torn from your sleep one night

The winds of change made you come of age

Down in the street was a sea of silence

They couldn't heal you but they shared your pain

You were left to be the lonely one

Now you know you're not the only one

He's so busy with all his plans

Got no time for his greatest fan

His son, son of a famous man

Keeps on giving you alibis

You keep wearing the same disguise

The son, son of a famous man

Time and again, you look to his eyes for a sign

But love is the one thing that money can't buy ...

You were born to be the lonely one

Now you know your time has finally come

He's so busy with all his plans

Got no time for his greatest fan

His son, son of a famous man

Keeps on giving you alibis

You keep wearing the same disguise

The son, son of a famous man
