even after all these years the sun has never said to the earth, you owe me... look at what a love like that can do, it can light up the sky

The stage has always been my home…
Maybe just the spotlight
I was a gymnast
Not the best
But I always won awards
I was an ice skater
Lacking natural talent
But made it up I heart
I was a dancer
Not the most graceful

But had a great sense of beat
I was an actress
My greatest strength
Was my worst weakness
I was a performer
On the stage I myself
Off the stage I was no-one
The stage has always been my home…
Maybe just the spotlight
