Warm lights from the grand houses blind me Haves cannot stand have-nots And my love is under the ground My one true love is under the ground And I'll never be, I'll never be I'll never be anybody's hero now I'll never be, I'll never be I'll never be anybody's hero now They who should love me walk right through me I am a ghost and as far as I know I haven't even died And my love is under the ground My one true love is under the ground And I'll never be, I'll never be I'll never be anybody's hero now I'll never be, I'll never be I'll never be anybody's hero now See me as I am See me as I am See me as I am I'll never be, I'll never be I'll never be anybody's lover now I'll never be, I'll never be I'll never be anybody's lover now Things I've heard and I've seen and I've felt and I've been Tell me I'll never be anybody's lover now It begins in the heart and it hurts when it's true It only hurts because it's true
