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

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

After all the years of waiting

I'm gonna show them all

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

Holding on wasn't always easy

Nothing can 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

After all the years of waiting

I'm gonna show them all

Maybe the role's not easy

Maybe the prize is small

After all the years of waiting

I'm gonna show them all
