Kim Carnes - It's Not The Spotlight lyrics

If I ever feel the light again shinin' 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 believin' that it'll come back some day It's not the spotlight And it's not the camera light And it's not the streetlight 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 was never real Just a fantasy that used to be the way I used to feel But you and I know better now Even though it's been so long If your memory really server you well You'll never tell me that I'm wrong It's not the spotlight And it's not the camera light And it's not the streetlight 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 If I ever feel the light again things will have to change Names and faces homes and places will have to be rearranged And you can help it come about If you're ever so inclined Ain't no rhyme or reason Why a woman can't change her mind It's not the spotlight And it's not the camera light And it's not the streetlight 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
