|
For me adorement outspoken |
|
Along with the blinding flashlights |
|
Pieces of me are wanted and taken |
|
I had never before felt stagefright |
|
It was a song that just came through me |
|
Like hundreds before had done |
|
But this one had a different feel |
|
This time I wrote too good a song |
|
I'm told my soul is sold |
|
For the moment in the spotlight |
|
I never knew the price |
|
Of the moment in the spotlight |
|
I will be played through, then I'm gone |
|
After the show is the light-switch turned |
|
That much of the place in the sun |
|
I should have let that note-sheet burn |
|
Tomorrow I'll have a new song |
|
To strike a fresh new note |
|
Back to basics where I belong |
|
I wish the system would let me out |
