Songtext Showtime Ryan Adams

Showtime

If the lights could lead you here, would you go?
If your arms were strong enough to hold me dear, would you let go?
If the stars were out tonight, how would we know?
Falling through the leaves of last season’s clothes

Say what you want to, carry what you can
If you were alone, could you walk, would you stand?
Under the lights shining in your eyes
And everybody waiting for you alone in the spotlight
Minus the tears and the heartache and the lies
Heart’s racin’ when it’s showtime
But you just take your time

If I walk, make it snow
Would you stand in line if mine held another?
Or would your fingers let go?
Or could you toe the line in hopes of a tomorrow?

Say what you want to, carry what you can
If you were alone, could you walk, would you stand?
Under the lights flashing in your eyes?
And everybody waiting for you alone in the spotlight?
Minus the tears and the heartache and the lies
Heart’s racin’ when it’s showtime
But you just take your time
It’s showtime
But you just take your time

Say what you want to, carry what you can
If you were alone, could you walk?
Would you stand under the lights flashing in your eyes?
And everyone was waiting for you alone in the spotlight
Minus the tears and the heartache and the lies
Heart’s racin’ when it’s showtime
But you just take your time
Heart’s racin’ when it’s showtime
But you just take your time
