Velvet Rope
Guess we'll never know
Is it hidden behind that velvet rope?
While I'm standing alone, out in the cold
Where did you go?
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Do your new friends know that it's all for show
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Or did you fool them all into thinking you're gold?
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Did you do as you're told? Will it ever get old?
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Don't you remember me, darling?
When you lay down to sleep, do you still think of me?
'Cause I remember you, darling
Without the sadness in your eyes
Now the champagne's running dry
I heard that you been living it up, living it up
Where did I go wrong?
Only yesterday, you were beside me, -side me
Now I'm just another one
You're the one who's giving it up, giving it up
Singing that same song
You're the only one I want beside me, -side me
Now I'm just another one
Singing that same song
You were so high
I bet you felt you could touch the sky
Now you reached the top, was it worth the climb?
Oh, what did you find? Would you leave it behind?
If I were to say
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
That since you've been gone it isn't the same
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
That maybe I'm wrong and I've made a mistake
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
By letting you go so far away
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Don't you remember me, darling?
When you lay down to sleep, do you still think of me?
'Cause I remember you, darling
Without the sadness in your eyes
Now the champagne's running dry (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
I heard that you been living it up, living it up
Where did I go wrong?
Only yesterday, you were beside me, -side me
Now I'm just another one
You're the one who's giving it up, giving it up
Singing that same song
You're the only one I want beside me, -side me
Now I'm just another one (Ooh)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Singing that same song, yeah (Ooh, ooh, yeah, yeah)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Now I'm just another one (Come on, ooh)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Clap with me now
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Singing that same song (Ooh, ooh)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
You're the only one I want beside me, -side me
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Now I'm just another one
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
I heard that you been living it up, living it up (Oh, no)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Where did I go wrong? (Yeah, yeah)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Only yesterday, you were beside me, -side me
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Now I'm just another one (You know that I know that I know it feels right, yeah, yeah)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
You're the one who's giving it up, giving it up (Oh, no)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Singing that same song
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
You're the only one I want beside me, -side me
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Now I'm just another one (Oh)
