UNDER THE SPOTLIGHT LYRICS
CHORUS
I’ve always been
in the spotlight
So no one knows
who you truly are
And yet without you
I couldn’t have made it this far
You could easily have had
your own star
On broadway,
but you choose
To follow my dreams in our
defunct, beaten up car
But it will always be part
Of the memories we share
Many nights on the highway
in the middle of nowhere
Every other day
In search of that next deal
So we don’t need to worry
about our next meal
you always believed in me
but your rationale was never clear
Your excuse
to always be here
That’s what I admire about you
Any reason to be at my side will do
And why I place all my trust in you…
[Pre-chorus]
Step out into the light
no longer in the shadow
Just make your move
though you’ve got
nothing to prove
cause you’ve created
this moment, know that
It belongs to only you
take your bow, you truly
deserve this adulation
I want the world to know
would not have made it this far
That’s how special you are!
Verse 2
No one knows the sacrifice
That you made by choice
You had as much right
To be the one chasing
Your dreams every night
Choosing to put your talent aside
And being at my side
Even when it wasn’t your fight
Don’t know what I did to deserve
But my silent prayers were heard
When you embraced my world
You perhaps wish this song
was about another girl
That’s how unassuming you are
But you’d be wrong, cause you’re
Like my desert sand,
So gentle and soft, yet ever
Present for me to lean on
[Bridge]
Come on into the light
It’s your moment
to shine bright
No longer out of sight
This is you in the spotlight
Baby, embrace and own it
No longer In my shadow
So come on into the spotlight
Stay no longer out of sight
Baby this is your night
I want every minute to be just right
As you sparkle in your spotlight…
