You're My Inspiration

(album: Reflections - 1984)

I was hanging round, I couldn't see you
Oh, the lights were low in that old country-bar
But I heard your voice and felt my heart was breaking
Then I walked on to the stage
And you looked into my face
I knew, the words you sang were meant for me

I was on the road, I'd never seen you
I sang my songs and played my old guitar
Little country songs for all the lost and loners
In the Honky-Tonks and bars
Feeling almost like a star
I played your favourite songs on my guitar
But I don't know who you are

You're my inspiration
When the bird has lost it's song
You were just a loner
Who was always on the run
Every hour of the day
Is just a moment far away
When you're no longer near me
To cheer me up again

Am I the only one, or am I dreaming
To follow you to every local bar
I can't resist the love songs that you're playing
In the Honky-Tonks and bars
Feeling almost like a star
I played your favourite songs on my guitar
But I don't know who you are

You're my inspiration
When the bird has lost it's song
You were just a loner
Who was always on the run
Every hour of the day
Is just a moment far away
When you're no longer near me
To cheer me up again

You're my inspiration
When the bird has lost it's song
You were just a loner
Who was always on the run
Every hour of the day
Is just a moment far away
When you're no longer near me
To cheer me up again
