When I look at you all I can see
Is the shadow of your life
You see this stage is a mirror
You can see me
But I can t see past its light
Lovers have tried to reach down inside
I only said that they were wrong
But when all I ve got left is me and my pride
I realize you can t buy love with a song

So somebody take me out of the night
Show me what life is made of
Won t somebody reach inside of my heart
I think that I m ready to love
I think that I m ready to love
I feel like I m ready to love

Well a lesson that s learned too late is a crime
I can t stand the pain of what could have been
Oh it s such a shame there s no one to blame
But no one knows what I have seen
What do you see when you look at me
Do I really seem so far away
But the song will go on
And you will applaud
And look at me I ll just keep singing

Somebody take me out of the night
Show me what life is made of
Won t somebody reach inside of my heart
I think that I m ready to love
I think that I m ready to love
I feel like I m ready to love

Oh show me what life s made of
Somebody please reach inside of my heart
I think that I m ready to love
I think that I m ready to love
I feel like I m ready
