If I ever feel the light again Shining down on me I won't have to tell you How welcome it would be
I felt the light before But I let it slip away And I just live if I believe in That it'll come back someday
It ain't the spotlight It ain't the candlelight It ain't 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 just isn't real It's just a fantasy that used to be The way I used to feel
But you and I know better Even though it's been too long Now if your memory really serves you well You'll never tell me no wrong
It ain't the spotlight It ain't the candlelight It ain't 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
So if I ever feel the light again Shining down on me I won't have to tell you How welcome it would be
I felt the light before But I let it slip away And I just live if I believe in That it'll come back someday
It ain't the spotlight It ain't the candlelight It ain't the streetlights Of some old street of dreams
It ain't the sunlight Not even the moonlight But I've seen it shining in your eyes And you know what I mean Yeah, I've seen it shining in your eyes And you know what I mean
