Lyrics
Find another songTimes were good
She never thought about the future, she just did what she would
But she really cared
About her music, it all seemed so important then
And she dreamed that every time she performed
Everyone would cry for more
That all she had to do was step into the light
And everyone would start to roar
And on the road
Where all but a few fall by the wayside on the grassier verge
She battled through
Against the others in her world, and the sleep, and the odds
But now everytime that she performed
Everybody cried for more
Soon all she had to do was step into the light
For everyone to start to roar
And all the people cried, you're the one we've waited for
But time went by
It wasn't so easy now, all uphill, and not feeling so strong
Yes times were hard
Too much thinking 'bout the future and what people might want
An then there was the time that she performed
When nobody called for more
And soon everytime she stepped into the light
They really let her know the score
But she dreamed of the times when she sang her songs
And everybody cried for more
When all she had to do was step into the light
For everyone to start to roar
And all the people cried, you're the one we've waited for
