Lyrics
I can feel the hot lights shining on my faded leather suit,
As I pick up my guitar to do my thing.
And my face takes on a glow,as the music starts to flow.
And as I begin to sing, I can hear the rafters ring.
But The Crowd is Only Cheering in my Mind,
And I'm off again on another fantasy.
Yes The Crowd is Only Cheering in my Mind,
But I got to chase that dream until I make that scene of standing center stage come true for me.
Then I lay down my guitar and I put a record on,
And I get to feeling this will be my year.
Then the music pulls me in and I drift away again,
'Till all at once I hear all the people stand and cheer.
But The Crowd is Only Cheering in my Mind,
And I'm off again on another fantasy.
Yes The Crowd is Only Cheering in my Mind,
But I got to chase that dream until I make that scene of standing center stage come true for me.
