Spotlight (Oh, Nostalgia)


Every word's a new regret if you say it right, right
Every wound can be forgotten in the right light
Oh, nostalgia, I don't need you anymore
'Cause the salad days are over and the meat is at my door

They might try to tell you how you can live your life
But don't, don't forget it's your right, to do whatever you like, you like, you like, you like
'Cause they might try to tell you how you can live your life
But don't, don't forget it's your right, to do whatever you like, you like

'Cause you could be your own spotlight, e-o, e-o
You could be your own spotlight, e-o, e-o
You could be your own spotlight
You could be the star, you can shine so bright, e-o, e-o
You could be your own spotlight

Depression is little bit like happy hour, right
It's always gotta be happening somewhere on any (any) given (given) night
No, nostalgia, I don't need you anymore
I just hope my perfect stranger that my kids look more like yours

'Cause they might (they might) try to tell you how you can live your life (your life)
But don't, don't forget it's your right to do whatever you like, you like

'Cause you could be your own spotlight, e-o, e-o
You could be your own spotlight, e-o, e-o
You could be your own spotlight
You could be the star, you can shine so bright, e-o, e-o

You could be your own spotlight, e-o, e-o
You could be your own spotlight, e-o, e-o
You could be your own spotlight
You could be the star, you can shine so bright, e-o, e-o (e-o, e-o)
You could be your own spotlight

'Cause you could I had a little bit of bad luck
(Shine a light up there, shine a light up there)
Oh, when will this crumbling world stop?
(Shine a light up there, shine a light up there)
Little sweetness keeps just out of reach...
(Shine a light up there, shine a light up there)
'Cause compassion is something that they just don't
They just don't teach, teach

'Cause you could be your own spotlight, e-o, e-o
You could be your own spotlight, e-o, e-o
You could be your own spotlight
You could be the star, you can shine so bright, e-o, e-o

You could be your own spotlight, e-o, e-o
You could be your own spotlight, e-o, e-o
You could be your own spotlight, e-o, e-o
You could be the star, you can shine so bright, e-o, e-o
You could be your own spotlight...
You could be your own spotlight
