In the Gaze of the Spotlight's Eye

歌詞

In the gaze of the spotlight's eye A long way from home Still nauseous from a turbulent sky Up on the stage alone The live end of a microphone Point-blank to my soul I'm trying hard To keep my self-control I want to go home I wish that this night would end I've got to go on And shoot from the heart again Somebody came for the rock n' roll Somebody carne for a smile Somebody came for a sermon in song Or something to call worthwhile The expectations of who-knows-who Examining my soul Unknown faces expecting me to play some role And oh, I want to go home I wish that this night would end But I've got to go on And shoot from the heart again I don't have no magical words No pockets full of spiritual jewels I only know about the way things are In light of the simple truth I don't know which hearts are breaking Or whose flags are truly unfurled Between here and heaven and the outside world And oh, I want to go home I wish that this night would end But I've got to go on And shoot from the heart again
