Limelight Lyrics

The Alan Parson Project

I can see the glow of a distant sunI can feel it insideMaybe this day could be the one
I can hear the roar of a distant crowdThey are waiting for meCalling my nameShouting out loud
Holding on isn't always easyI ain't gonna change my mind
Limelight you were all I ever wantedSince it all beganLimelight shining on meTelling the world who I amLimelight don't let me slip right through your fingersThere's a long way to fallAfter the years of waitingI'm gonna show them all
I can see the world in a different lightNow it's easy to sayWhere I went wrongWhat I did right
I can hear the beat of a different drumTake it all in my strideHold my head highSecond to none
Holding on wasn't always easyNothing can change my mind
Limelight you were all I ever wanted since it all beganLimelight shining on me telling the world who I amLimelight don't let it slip right through your fingersThere's a long way to fallAfter all the years of waiting, I'm gonna show them allMaybe the role's not easy, maybe the prize is smallAfter all the years of waiting, I'm gonna show them all
