Everybody loves you now

Baby all the lights are turned on you
Now you´re in the center of the stage
Ev´rything revolves on what you do
Ah
you´re in your prime
You´ve come of age
You can always have your way somehow
´Cause ev´rybody loves you now
You can walk away from your mistakes
You can turn your back on what you do
Just a little smile is all it takes
And you can have your cake and eat it too
Loneliness will get to you somehow
But ev´rybody loves you now
Ah
they all want your white body
And they await your reply
Ah
but between you and me and the Staten Island ferry
So do I
All the people want to know your name
Soon there will be lines outside your door
Feelings do not matter in your game
´Cause nothing´s gonna touch you anymore
So your life is only living anyhow
And ev´rybody loves you now
Close your eyes when you don´t want to see
And stay at home when you don´t want to go
Only speak to those who will agree
Yeah
and close your mind when you don´t want to know
You have lost your innocence somehow
But ev´rybody loves you now
Ah
you know that nothin´ lasts forever
And it´s all been done before
Ah but you ain´t got the time
To go to Cold Spring Harbor no more
See how all the people gather around
Hey
isn´t it a thrill to see them crawl
Keep your eyes ahead and don´t look down
Yeah
and lock yourself inside your sacred wall
This is what you wanted
ain´t you proud
´Cause ev´rybody loves you now
Now you´re in the center of the stage
Ev´rything revolves on what you do
Ah
you´re in your prime
You´ve come of age
You can always have your way somehow
´Cause ev´rybody loves you now
You can walk away from your mistakes
You can turn your back on what you do
Just a little smile is all it takes
And you can have your cake and eat it too
Loneliness will get to you somehow
But ev´rybody loves you now
Ah
they all want your white body
And they await your reply
Ah
but between you and me and the Staten Island ferry
So do I
All the people want to know your name
Soon there will be lines outside your door
Feelings do not matter in your game
´Cause nothing´s gonna touch you anymore
So your life is only living anyhow
And ev´rybody loves you now
Close your eyes when you don´t want to see
And stay at home when you don´t want to go
Only speak to those who will agree
