Spotlight Lyrics - Shelter Me - The Waifs

Moon hangs in the night 

A spotlight on the world 

Rising the lands, 

Moving the seas 

And tonight from where 

I stand on this hill 

The spotlight's on me 

I am young long ago 

I know not a thing 

Only that the sky is blue 

Or sometimes gray 

Flowers grow but they need rain 

And when you're a kid 

You play games all day 

Anywhere you can 

Spotlight 

I found you 

I know where you are 

I found you 

I know where you are 

Formative years come along 

Some take the lead 

And some fall behind 

Confusion untold 

Life can be so dramatic 

But it was real at the time 

Laughing with friends 

Crying alone 

All the false hearts and petty love 

We leave school 

To face the world 

That seems fun for the world 

But you tire of the same faces 

And you dream of new places 

It was a breath of aspiration 

When my sister said 

"Let's get out of here" 

We left our town 

We traveled 'round 

And I went to find me 

Spotlight, spotlight 

I found you 

I know where you are 

Spotlight, spotlight 

I found you 

I know where you are 

Twenty something and the fog 

Has all but disappeared 

With each day passed 

I learned something more 

At all rate I'm thinking here 

I must know it all 

Love, death, a little pain 

Has passed through these walls 

Situations still arrive 

Where I can see 

The way I behaved was unjustified 

These are the times 

I look inside 

And I see 

I'm a child after all 

Spotlight 

I found you 

I know who you are 

Spotlight 

I found you 

I know who you are 

Spotlight 

I found you 

I know who you are 

Spotlight, spotlight 

I found you 

I know where you are 

Spotlight, spotlight 

I found you 

I know where you are 

Spotlight, spotlight 

I found you 

I know where you are 

I found you 

Moon hangs in the night 

A spotlight on the world
