Limelight Lyrics by Nelson Can

So Long Desire

2019

[Verse 1]
I never had so much to live for
I would have died for it, for it
I never had so much to live for
But I would have died for it, for it

[Pre-Chorus]
But every time I get out
And go out to get off
You whisper my name
Again and again

[Chorus]
If only you had eyes for me
I would shine so vividly
In your limelight
In your limelight
Every time you on me
Everything seems so clear
You live for the limelight
You live for the limelight

[Verse 2]
And when the lights are off and you're fading
I could be waiting here for you, for you
And the lights are off and incenting
I could be dancing here with you, with you

[Pre-Chorus]
But every time you get up
And go out to get off
I see what you mean
Yeah, I know where it leads

[Chorus]
If only you had eyes for me
I would shine so vividly
In your limelight
In your limelight
Every time you on me
Everything seems so clear
You live for the limelight
You live for the limelight

[Bridge]
You live for the limelight, lime
Limelight
You live for the limelight, lime
Limelight
You live for the limelight, lime
Limelight, lime
You live for the limelight, lime
You live for the limelight, lime

[Chorus]
Limelight, lime
You live for the limelight, lime
You live for the limelight, lime
You live for the lime
You live for the

[Outro]
I would die for one night
In your limelight
You live for the limelight
You live for the limelight
I would die for one night
In your limelight
