The Reason I Sing
If it's just to top a song chart To feed the kids and get a bigger car The skies already got enough stars And they all sing Your name And if I'm here to write a number one To get a gold or maybe platinum Make me a singer who is unsung 'Cause You won't share Your fame [CHORUS] 'Cause even accolades someday will fade away Oh just like me Yes everything but You, yeah And many years from now It won't matter how I write the rhymes I do, yeah Help me get back to the reason I sing for You I'm always looking for the limelight To dim my house and make the stages bright Compared to You I'm just a night light Against the blazing sun I enter rooms and hope they notice me To fill my social insecurities I'm asking is there any hope for me Songtexte'Cause there's only room here for one [CHORUS] Why are we so convinced a bigger audience Is simply common sense to have? Maybe success is measured best By nothing less than our obedience So if I'm destined for a small stage, The small crowds and the small pay, then maybe in a small way I can bring you fame, yeah [CHORUS] Oh, Oh oh Help me get back to the reason I sing for You (Thanks to Nicole for these lyrics) Aus Songtexte Mania
