Limelight

Alan Parsons

I can see the glow of a distant sun


I can feel it inside


Maybe this day could be the one





I can hear the roar of a distant crowd


They are waiting for me


Calling my name


Shouting out loud





Holding on isn't always easy


I ain't gonna change my mind





Limelight you were all I ever wanted


Since it all began


Limelight shining on me


Telling the world who I am


Limelight don't let me slip right through your fingers


There's a long way to fall


After the years of waiting


I'm gonna show them all





I can see the world in a different light


Now it's easy to say


Where I went wrong


What I did right





I can hear the beat of a different drum


Take it all in my stride


Hold my head high


Second to none





Holding on wasn't always easy


Nothing can change my mind





Limelight you were all I ever wanted since it all began


Limelight shining on me telling the world who I am


Limelight don't let me slip right through your fingers


There's a long way to fall


After the years of waiting I'm gonna show them all


Maybe the role's not easy, maybe the prize is small


After the years of waiting I'm gonna show them all
