If Life Was A Show
Lyrics by Benita Mae
Performed by Michelle Nightingale
I was at a career expo once and I was wondering what my life was going to be, who am I supposed to be, what is next, so I just decided to write it all down as this song.
If Life Was A Show
On go the lights, up goes the curtain
It’s the big night, never been more certain
Beating hearts, shining lights
Everyone knows their part
As the spotlight shines so bright
But does the script say about me?
What am I suppose to be?
If life was a show, where am I suppose to go?
If life was a show how am I suppose to know?
What role do I need to play?
And what lines do I have to say?
If life was a show when is my cue?
Standing backstage feeling like one of the few
If life was a show then who am I suppose to be?
On go the dancers, off goes the orchestra
How can you wish for something better?
The audience smiles, the audience laughs
With joy they clap their hands
What song am I suppose to sing?
As I listen to the bells ring.
Chorus
Compassion, emotions, I can see it in their eyes
Wonder, magic, flying through the sky,
Hope, believing, the hearts of children of all ages,
What will my story say as I turn the pages?
Chorus
