Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Boy meets a girl
Who hid behind a wall
Piling up the bricks
Hoping they would fall
Girl meets a boy
Surrenders to his charms
Leaves her old boyfriend
And crumbles in his arms
[Verse 2]
And if they wanna make me pay now
Then go on
'Cause loving you was never wrong
[Verse 3]
Here is my life in the spotlight, the spotlight
And it's hurting my eyes, 'cause it's so bright, so bright
But you are the link I was missing that I couldn't find
And I wouldn't give you up, even if I end up blind
[Verse 4]
Been busy for a while
Laying golden eggs
Some just want your money
Or whatever they can take
But you are your own man
Don't need anyone else
You're here because you want me
And not for what I make
[Verse 5]
Hey, they better know
If there is a price to pay now
Game's on
'Cause in the end, you know I won
[Verse 6]
Here is my life in the spotlight, the spotlight
It's hurting my eyes, 'cause it's so bright, so bright
But you are the link I was missing that I couldn't find
And I wouldn't give you up, even if I end up blind
[Verse 7]
And every camera flash my way
And every word of every page
Well, they can say whatever they want to
'Cause what we got is just so real
That they can't change the way I feel
'Cause I would do it all again for you
[Verse 8]
Here is my life in the spotlight, the spotlight
And it's hurting my eyes, 'cause it's so bright, so bright
But you are the link I was missing that I couldn't find
And I wouldn't give you up, even if I end up blind
Here is my life in the spotlight, the spotlight
And it's hurting my eyes, 'cause it's so bright, so bright
But you are the link I was missing that I couldn't find
And I wouldn't give you up, even if I end up blind
