The limelight shone on me and I became the centre of attention
Nothing attracted them as much as I did
The way the cameras flashed and the mikes took forth
A girl’s fantasies did come true
The purple gown brushed the red carpet as I stepped forward
Under my moccasins was a pavement of luxury
People stood in amazement and as a star I jeweled
A sudden blink, the limelight starts to fade
Black clouds absorbing the moonlight left me in dark
The stones pressed deep beneath my bruised feet
I lay on the ground
A passing hand raised me to feet
As I brushed off the dust on my tattered cloth
Those pity eyes had sympathy for a wandering child
The cold eyes gazed upon as I drag myself
Under the limelight, on the carpet, being the centre of attention, I walk again
