Lonely Spotlight
(Verse 1)
I saw you in a crowded room
Your eyes met mine
And I felt the gloom
In this life of fame where I'm all alone
Your smile was a light that I've never known
(Chorus)
You're beautiful
It's true
But the fame keeps me away from you
In this world of flashing lights
I dream of holding you tight
(Verse 2)
The cameras flash
And the crowd roars
But deep inside my heart implores
For a love that's real
Not just a show
But in this life it's hard to let it grow
(Chorus)
You're beautiful
It's true
But the fame keeps me away from you
In this world of flashing lights
I dream of holding you tight
(Bridge)
Loneliness creeps in like the night
And I wonder if I'll ever get it right
In this maze of fame and glory
I just want you to be my story
(Chorus)
You're beautiful
It's true
But the fame keeps me away from you
In this world of flashing lights
I dream of holding you tight
(Outro)
So here I stand with a heart that's torn
Between the love I seek and the fame I've worn
You're beautiful
And I wish you knew
In this life of fame my heart belongs to you
