If I ever feel the light again shining 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 believing that it ll come back some day.

It s not the spotlightit s not the cam ra light
it s not the street lights of some old street of dreams.
It ain t the moonlightnot even the sunlight
but I ve seen it shining in your eyes and you know what I mean.

Some times I try to tell myself the light was never real
just a fantasy that used to bethe way I used to feel.
But you and I know bettereven though it s been so long
if your memory really serves you wellyou ll never tell me no wrong.

It s not the spotlightit s not the cam ra light
it s not the streetlights of some old street of dreams.
It ain t the moonlightnot 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 shining down on me
I don t have to tell you 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 some day.

It s not the spotlightit s not the cam ra light
it s not the streetlights of some old street of dreams.
It ain t the moonlightnot even the sunlight
but I ve seen it shining in your eyes and you know what I mean.
