Spotlight

The Waifs

Moon hangs in the night

A spotlight on the world

Rising the lands,

Moving the seas

And tonight from where

I stand on this hill

The spotlight's on me

I am young long ago

I know not a thing

Only that the sky is blue

Or sometimes gray

Flowers grow but they need rain

And when you're a kid

You play games all day

Anywhere you can



Spotlight

I found you

I know where you are

I found you

I know where you are



Formative years come along

Some take the lead

And some fall behind

Confusion untold

Life can be so dramatic

But it was real at the time

Laughing with friends

Crying alone

All the false hearts and petty love

We leave school

To face the world

That seems fun for the world



But you tire of the same faces

And you dream of new places

It was a breath of aspiration

When my sister said

"Let's get out of here"

We left our town

We travelled 'round

And I went to find me



Spotlight, spotlight

I found you

I know where you are

Spotlight, spotlight

I found you

I know where you are



Twenty something and the fog

Has all but disappeared

With each day passed

I learned something more

At all rate I'm thinking here

I must know it all

Love, death, a little pain

Has passed through these walls



Situations still arrive

Where I can see

The way I behaved was unjustified

These are the times

I look inside

And I see

I'm a child after all



Spotlight

I found you

I know who you are



Spotlight

I found you

I know who you are



Spotlight

I found you

I know who you are



Spotlight, spotlight

I found you

I know where you are



Spotlight, spotlight

I found you

I know where you are



Spotlight, spotlight

I found you

I know where you are



I found you
