One-Man Band

(instrumental with buildup) (Verse) Scoured these dusty streets, worn out my lonely shoes Been searchin' for a love, somethin' to pay the blues Dim bar lights paint shadows, faces in every haze But all the hearts I see, they're locked in a lover's daze (Chorus 2x) Can I have this dance, with a smile and a hopeful plea? But the answer's always "taken," another heartbreak for me So I clink my glass against the counter, a toast to one-man blues Waltzin' with myself, 'til the mornin' light peeks through (Verse 2) Caught a glimpse of laughter, across a crowded room Thought maybe this time, baby, fate would finally bloom Walked up with a swagger, hat tilted low and cool But another arm took her and i stood there like a fool (instrumental with buildup and climax) like a fool.. Oohhh i said like a fool... (instrumental with buildup) Oh Maybe I'm a shadow, a melody unheard Maybe love's a train I missed, leavin' me with just a word But this lonely ain't stoppin' me, from shakin' what I've got This one-man band's still playin', even if the crowd is not (instrumental with buildup and climax) (instrumental with buildup) (Chorus 2x) Can I have this dance, with a smile and a hopeful plea(plea)?
