The Idol Songtext
von Bobby Vee

People say that I′m the idol of a million girls
But though it's nice to know, sometimes I wish it weren′t so
I suppose I should be happy traveling 'round the world
But it gets me down 'cause the girl I love is not around


When I′m on the stage at least I know my fans are with me then
But when they′re through applauding and they go, I miss her so
It isn't easy to be an idol when you′re not made of stone
Everybody's with someone but an idol stands alone

I read somewhere that I′m a happy guy, I'm glad to hear it
But they never write about the tears I cry because of her
It isn′t easy to be an idol when you're not made of stone
Everybody's with someone but an idol stands alone
An idol stands alone
