If heartaches brought fame, in love's crazy game,
I'd be a legend 
I'd be a legend
In my time.

If they gave those statuettes for tears and regrets,

If loneliness were well and plain,
then everyone would call my name.
I'd be a legend 
I'd be a legend 
In my time.

If loneliness were well and plain,
then everyone would call my name.
I'd be a legend 
I'd be a legend 
In my time.
