When I look at you,
|
And all I can see
|
Is the shadow of your life
|
You see the stage is a mirror
|
You can see me
|
But I can't see past its light
|
|
Lovers have tried
|
To reach down inside
|
I only said that they were wrong
|
But when all I've got left
|
Is me and my pride
|
I realize you can't buy love with a song
|
|
Chorus:
|
Somebody take me out of the night
|
And show me what life is made of
|
Won't somebody reach inside of my heart
|
I think that I'm ready to love
|
|
Well a lesson that's learned
|
Too late is a crime
|
I can't stand the pain
|
Of what could have been
|
Oh it's such a shame
|
But there's no one to blame
|
Yet no one knows what I've seen
|
|
What do you see
|
When you look at me
|
Do I really seem so far away
|
But the song will go on
|
And you will applaud
|
And when you look at me
|
I'll just keep singing
|
|
Chorus:
|
Somebody take me out of the night
|
Show me what life is made of
|
Oh won't somebody reach inside of my heart
|
I think that I'm ready to love
|
I think that I'm ready to love
|
It feels like I'm ready to love
|
|
Bridge:
|
Oh
|
Won't you show me what life's made of
|
Won't somebody please reach inside of my heart
|
I think that I'm ready to love
|
I think that I'm ready to love
|
Feels like I'm ready to love
|
