"The Troubadour" lyrics

The Troubadour

Troubadour
Troubadour
Troubadour

The troubadour
The troubadour
Sings from his heart
The song that's the hit
Of the show
Watch him sing and play the strings
Of his guitar
Alone in the bright spotlight's glow

The song was for someone
He loved so true
Who loved him then left him
For someone new

The troubaour
The troubadour
Smile as he sings
But his heart is breaking in two

Troubadour
Troubadour
Troubadour

Troubadour
Troubadour

They beg for more
The troubadour
Sings once again
The song that's the hit
Of the show
Watch him sing and play the strings
Of his guitar
Alone in the bright spotlight's glow

There is a hush
In the darkened hall
A few hearts are heavy
And teardrops fall

But in the crowd
One head is bowed
For the troubadour
And oh her heart aches most of all

Troubadour
Troubadour
Her heart aches most of all
