It`s Not The Spotlight — текст песни (Kim Carnes)

(Barry Goldberg/Gerry Golfin)

If I ever feel the light again shinin` down on me
I don`t have to tell you what a welcome it will be
I felt the light before but I let it slip away
But I still keep on believin` that it`ll come back some day

It`s not the spotlight
And it`s not the camera light
And it`s not the streetlight of some old street of dreams
It ain`t the moonlight
Not even the sunlight
But I`ve seen it shining in your eyes
And you know what I mean

Sometimes I try to tell myself the light was never real
Just a fantasy that used to be the way I used to feel
But you and I know better now
Even though it`s been so long
If your memory really server you well
You`ll never tell me that I`m wrong

It`s not the spotlight
And it`s not the camera light
And it`s not the streetlight of some old street of dreams
It ain`t the moonlight
Not even the sunlight
But I`ve seen it shining in your eyes
And you know what I mean

If I ever feel the light again things will have to change
Names and faces homes and places will have to be rearranged
And you can help it come about
If your`re ever so inclined
Ain`t no rhyme or reason
Why a woman can`t change her mind

It`s not the spotlight
And it`s not the camera light
And it`s not the streetlight of some old street of dreams
It ain`t the moonlight
Not even the sunlight
But I`ve seen it shining in your eyes
And you know what I mean
