Star Of The Show

What did become of the girl i once knew
What of the glamour and pain
Those were the days, yes the star of the show
There up in lights shone my name
Shone my name
I fell in love with the man of my dreams
He was so handsome and kind
One day i found her alone in his arms
A pretty young girl from the line, chorus line
Chorus line
Chorus:
I lost faith in myself
Couldn't face publicity
What this man had done to me
And i was right, and he was wrong
Foolish pride got in my way
If i'd looked the other way
I would still be the star of the show
I vowed i'd never go back on my word
No-one would treat me this way
Only close friends knew how he broke my heart
A secret i kept to this day
To this day
Repeat chorus
Time passes slowly and people forget
No-one remembers my name
Such a price, such is fame
