[verse 1]
It’s always them. In the light.
Stirring the crowd.
It’s always me. In the back.
Making no sound.
They get the car. And the house.
And that’s alright.
But I can’t stand. The thought of.
Him holding her tight.
Then she walks in. All alone.
Searching for me.
Her eyes met mine. And I knew.
She saw only ME!
[chorus]
I’m not famous, but she knows all about me.
I’m not rich, but she loves to hang out with me.
I have no name, but she still calls me.
The world sees nothing, but she sees all I could be.
I’m not in the background, to her, I’m everything.
[Verse 2]
She comes my way. And she runs.
Right into me.
She wants to dance. But I hide.
I’m nobody.
She disagrees. And she says.
I’m something.
And so we leave. The party.
It’s just us.
She kisses me. It’s so sweet.
Full of trust.
She stops to breathe. Lipstick stains.
The color of rust.
[chorus]
I’m not famous, but she knows all about me.
I’m not rich, but she loves to hang out with me.
I have no name, but she still calls me.
The world sees nothing, but she sees all I could be.
I’m not in the background, to her, I’m everything.
[bridge]
She tells me I’m her hero.
I tell her ‘I’m just me though.’
She whispers that “She knows”
To her I’m in the lime-light.
I am what she dreams at night.
To her, I’m worth the fight.
She thinks I’m her hero.
She thinks I’m Her HERO!
[chorus end]
I’m not famous, but she knows all about me.
I’m not rich, but she loves to hang out with me.
I have no name, but she still calls me.
The world sees nothing, but she sees all I could be.
I’m not in the background, to her, I’m everything.
