It's Not The Spotlight lyrics by Rod Stewart
If I ever see the light againshining down on me
I don't have to tell you
how welcome it will be
I fell for love before
but I let it slip away
But I still keep believing that
it willl come back some day
It's not the spotlight
It ain't the moonlight
It ain't the streetlight
on some old street of dreams
It ain't the moonlight
Not even the candlelight
But I've seen it in your eyes
if you know what I mean
Sometimes
I try to tell myself
that the light was never real
Just a fantasy
that used to be
the way that I used to feel
But you and I know better
even though it's been so long
And if your memory
serves you well, you can
never tell me that I'm wrong
It's not the spotlight
It ain't the moonlight
It ain't the streetlight
on some old street of dreams
It ain't the moonlight
Not even the candlelight
But I've seen it in your eyes
if you know what I mean
And if I ever
can feel the light again
You know things
will have to change
Names and Faces
and homes and Places
will have to be re arranged
And you can help
become a part
if you're ever so inclined
Well, there ain't no rhyme
or a reason why a man
can't change his mind
It's not the spotlight
It ain't the moonlight
It ain't the streetlight
on some old street of dreams
It ain't the moonlight
Not even the candlelight
But I've seen it in your eyes
if you know what I mean
It's not the spotlight
It ain't the moonlight
It ain't the streetlight
on some old street of dreams
It ain't the moonlight
Not even the candlelight
But I've seen it in your eyes
if you know what I mean
