I can see the glow Of a distant sun I can feel it inside Maybe this day could be the one I can hear the roar Of a distant crowd They are waiting for me Calling my name Shouting out loud I can see the world In a different light Now it's easy to say Where I went wrong What I did right I can hear the beat Of a different drum Take it all in my stride Hold my head high Second to none Limelight! You were all I ever wanted Since it all began! Limelight! Shining on me Telling the world who I am! Limelight! Don't let me slip right through your fingers There's a long way to fall! After all the years of waiting I'm gonna show them all! I can hear the roar Of a distant crowd They are waiting for me Calling my name Shouting out loud Holding on isn't always easy I ain't gonna change my mind Limelight! You were all I ever wanted Since it all began! Limelight! Shining on me Telling the world who I am! Limelight! Don't let me slip right through your fingers There's a long way to fall! Limelight! You were all I ever wanted Since it all began! Limelight! Shining on me Telling the world who I am! Limelight! Don't let me slip right through your fingers There's a long way to fall! Maybe the road's not easy Maybe the prize is small But after all the years of waiting I'm gonna show them all!
