Oh, you think you're something special
And I think that I'm to blame
For I couldn't put you any higher
And that's the thing that knocked us down
For as the pedestal grew taller
You still played around till we hit the ground
And now it's gone, and neither one can understand
And I know we once had something special
And oh, it seems a shame to let it go
But you, like the statue of a goddess
Preferred the masses at your feet
For me, half the love was in the worship
And when such folks meet, you can feel the heat
And so it goes, living separate love affairs
But do you think we learned a lesson?
Do you think that there's a chance
To maybe start the game all over
With a new true romance?
And now, it's really something special
And I think you feel the same
For I love you 'cause I need you
You're not an idol any more
And you love me 'cause there's something there
Perhaps a little more than you bargained for
And now I know, to me you're something special
Yes, I think you're something special
And I know, to me you're something special...
