I love those lyrics too Snowbird, and pretty much all Wilco lyrics for that matter.  I think you might like these:
"The Lonely 1"
Before the show you walked right past
Arms reached out for your autograph
And as you flashed your backstage pass
I caught your eye with a camera's flash 
When the band came out they stood behind you
Cymbals crashed, the lights went blue
You stood alone in the halo's haze
Shining guitar hung on gold lame'
And you, you were the lonely one
You were the lonely one.
When you perform it's so intense
When critics pan I write in your defense
I understand I am just a fan, I'm just a fan 
When I get home I turn off the alarm
I've checked the phone, no messages on
I play the ones from yesterday
I play your song just to hear you say 
That you, you're the lonely one
You are the lonely one
