It's Not the Spotlight

If I ever feel the light again shining down on me I don't have to tell ya, what a welcome it will be I felt the light before but I let it slip away But I still keep on believing that it'll come back someday It's not the spotlight, it's not the camera light It's not the streetlights 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, even though it's been so long If your memory really serves you well, you'll never tell me no wrong It's not the spotlight, it's not the camera light It's not the streetlights of some old street of dreams It ain't the moonlight, not even the sunlight But I've seen it shining in your eyes, you know what I mean So if I ever feel the light again shinin' down on me I don't have to tell ya what a welcome it would be I felt the light before but I let it slip away But I still keep on believing that it'll come back someday It's not the spotlight, it's not the camera light It's not the streetlights 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 It's not the spotlight, it ain't the camera light It's not the streetlights of some old street of dreams No, it ain't the moonlight, never the sunlight But I've seen it shining in your eyes, you know what I mean
