Times were good   But she never thought about the future   She just did what she would   Oh but she really cared about her music   But it only all seemed so important then      And she dreamed of the time when she performed   When everyone would cry for more   That all she had to do was step into the light   For 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 every time that she performed   When everyone cried for more   Soon all she had to do was step into the light   For everyone to start to roar and all the children cried   You're the one we've waited for, oh, oh, oh      Ooh but time went by   And things wasn't so easy now, all uphill   And not feeling so strong, yes times were hard   There was too much thinking 'bout the future   And what people might want      Then there was the time that she performed   When nobody called for more   Soon every single time she stepped into the light   Well they really let her know the score      But she dreamed of the times when she sang her songs   And, and everyone cried for more   When all she had to do was step into the light   For everyone to start to roar and all the children cried   You're the one we've waited for, oh
