In the middle of a sleepless night Got a feeling and it just ain't right The feeling just grows in my mind Something's missing in the way we kiss Never had so many nights like this Feels like a dream but it's true I know I don't take you to Heaven anymore Can tell by the way you touch me It's nothing like before I know I don't take you to heaven anymore Can tell by the way you love me It's nothing like before Tell by the way you love me It's nothing like before In the middle of a lonely day Though you're with me you're so far away We used to be close, real close Baby, can't you see the danger signs? A love like ours is hard to find Something's gone wrong, can't you see? I know I don't take you to Heaven anymore Can tell by the way you touch me It's nothing like before I know I don't take you to Heaven anymore Can tell by the way you love me It's nothing like before I can tell by the way you love me It's nothing like before Oh, I know I don't take you to Heaven anymore Can tell by the way you touch me It's nothing like before I know I don't take you to Heaven anymore Can tell by the way you love me It's nothing like before

I can see the glow Of the distant sun I can feel it inside Maybe this day Could be the one I can hear the roar Of the distant crowd They are waiting for me Calling my name Shouting out loud Limelight You were all I ever wanted, since it all began Limelight Shining on me, telling the world who I am Oh, Limelight Don't let me slip right through you fingers There's a long way to fall After all the years of waiting I'm going to show them all I can see the world In a different light Now it's easy to say Where I went wrong What I did right Holding on isn't always easy I am gonna change my mind Limelight You were all I ever wanted, since it all began Limelight Shining on me, telling the world who I am Oh, Limelight Don't let me slip right through you fingers There's a long way to fall Limelight You were all I ever wanted, since it all began Limelight Shining on me, telling the world who I am Yeah, Limelight Don't let me slip right through you fingers There's a long way to fall Maybe the road's not easy I'm gonna show them all

Such a long time ago Now I know You've woke up to find You were wrong There ain't no doubt Put me out Nearly made me blind You sent me a letter, brought tears to my eyes Tell me you've changed, after all this time Like a stone rolling down the mountainside It's over, you can't turn the tide, and it's Tears falling about love, falling without love Tears falling about love, falling without love I was glad To be with you Near to you My heart can't deny (Then why, baby, why?) I was sad To leave your side Stripped of pride When we said goodbye (Goodbye, baby, bye) For every new road there must be a friend For every broken heart there must be a mend And the rain only lasted so long It's over, the thing we had is gone, and it's Tears falling about love, falling without love Tears falling about love, falling without love To tell me you've changed brought tears to my eyes Say you've rearranged after all this time Like a stone rolling down the mountainside It's over, we can't turn the tide And nothing's gonna stop my crying Tears falling about love, falling without love Oh, that's all they mean to me Tears falling about love, falling without love Oh, that's what they mean Tears falling about love, falling without love Tears falling about love, falling without love Oh, yeah Tears falling about love, falling without love Tears falling about love, falling without love
