"Showtime" lyrics
"Showtime"
If the lights could lead you here, would you go?
If your arms were strong enough to hold me dear, would you let go?
If the stars were out tonight how would we know?
Falling through the leaves of last season's clothes
Say what you want to, carry what you can
If you were alone could you walk or could you stand
Under the lights shining in your eyes
With everybody waiting for you, alone in the spotlight
Minus the tears and the heartache and the lies
Hearts racing when it's showtime
But you just take your time...
If a walk could make us know
Would you stand in line
While mine had held another's?
Or would your fingers let go
Or could you tow the line
In hopes of a tomorrow
Say what you want to, carry what you can
If you were alone could you walk or could you stand
Under the lights flashing in your eyes
With everybody waiting for you, alone in the spotlight
Minus the tears and the heartache and the lies
Hearts racing when it's showtime
But you just take your time...
It's showtime
But you just take your time...
Say what you want to, carry what you can
If you were alone could you walk or could you stand
Under the lights flashing in your eyes
With everybody waiting for you, alone in the spotlight
Minus the tears and the heartache and the lies
Hearts racing when it's showtime
But you just take your time...
Hearts racing when it's showtime
But you just take your time...

Has commentary been more elusive than anybody else?
And had he successfully beaten back the rising tide
Of idiots, dilettantes, and fools
