(Blackmore/Glover) |
|
You don't know what's happening, you want to go home |
|
But there's nowhere to hide |
|
You walk out on stage, your first time alone |
|
The crowd's going wild |
|
And you feel so alive |
|
You could stand up and take this all night |
|
They love you but you're in love with the spotlight |
|
You're the spotlight kid |
|
Jokers and women they hang 'round your door |
|
They're all part of the scene |
|
Just like a junkie you've got to have more |
|
It's a pleasure machine |
|
And you fly every night |
|
But the dressing room mirror don't lie |
|
They love you but you're in love with the spotlight |
|
You're the spotlight kid |
|
Your audience died, faded away |
|
Leaving you on the stage |
|
It's been so many years since that first matinee |
|
It seems like an age |
|
Encore one more time |
|
For the ghosts of the past in your mind |
|
They love you but you're in love with the spotlight |
|
You're the spotlight kid |
|
You're living in a dream |
|
You're the spotlight kid |
|
You're in love with the spotlight |
