Life means nothing, when no one knows your name
Never had too much but I'd give it all for fame
Baby, baby...
She's there on the TV, so beautiful on screen
Selling me a life I've never known and never seen
Baby, baby...
If I only had you, if I only had...
CHORUS
Television, new religion, let everyone sing Hallelujah
Politicians, don't wanna listen, they only wanna make money out of you
Hallelujah!!
Newspaper headlines, I can't believe my eyes
No tales of war and destruction, but who said what last night
On the TV, that could be me!
Through the shop window it's a widescreen world
But I can't afford a thing and I never get the girl
It ain't easy, no it ain't easy...
If I only had you, if I only had...
CHORUS
Oh, you know we always want something,
But we end up with nothing
If I only had you, if I only had...
CHORUS
