Lyrics

[00:00.725] "It's Not The Spotlight"
[00:14.712] If I ever feel the light again shining down on me
[00:22.718] I don't have to tell ya, what a welcome it will be
[00:29.969] I felt the light before but I let it slip away
[00:36.960] But I still keep on believing that it'll come back someday
[00:44.726]
[00:45.226] It's not the spotlight, it's not the camera light
[00:51.959] It's not the street lights of some old street of dreams
[00:58.718] It ain't the moonlight, not even the sunlight
[01:05.960] But I've seen it shining in your eyes and you know what I mean
[01:14.966]
[01:22.225] Sometimes I try to tell myself the light was never real
[01:29.459] Just a fantasy that used to be, the way I used to feel
[01:36.214] But you and I know better, even though it's been so long
[01:43.960] If your memory really serves you well, you'll never tell me no wrong
[01:50.219]
[01:51.222] It's not the spotlight, it's not the camera light
[01:58.222] It's not the streetlights of some old street of dreams
[02:04.217] It ain't the moonlight, not even the sunlight
[02:12.462] But I've seen it shining in your eyes, you know what I mean
[02:22.979]
[02:33.465] So if I ever feel the light again shinin' down on me
[02:40.722] I don't have to tell ya what a welcome it would be
[02:50.967] I felt the light before but I let it slip away
[03:03.219] But I still keep on believing that it'll come back someday
[03:03.718]
[03:04.468] It's not the spotlight, it's not the camera light
[03:09.720] It's not the streetlights of some old street of dreams
[03:19.962] It ain't the moonlight, not even the sunlight
[03:25.209] But I've seen it shining in your eyes and you know what I mean
[03:32.974]
[03:33.471] It's not the spotlight, it's ain't the camera light
[03:39.721] It's not the streetlights of some old street of dreams
[03:45.973] No, it ain't the moonlight, never the sunlight
[03:49.717] But I've seen it shining in your eyes, you know what I mean
