Spotlight

From all the way across the room, I knew

You were standin' there in the spotlight

Light blue ribbon in your hair

Innocent without a care

It was then I stole a glance at you, and I knew

You turned to look at me

It made me weak in the knees

But I built up the courage to ask

"You wanna go somewhere besides the dance?"

Cause there's a million other things

That I can think to do

Besides stepping all over

Your pretty blue shoes

We can sing and we can dance

And we can laugh and we can cry

And you can tell me 'bout everything

We'll be driving down the road

Going the speed limit of course

You'll be staring at the stars

And I'll be telling you all I know

And even though it won't be much

We'll be happy all the same

Because it's you and me and the open road

Even though I don't know your name

I'm still praying and waiting for that day

For the ribbon in the spotlight

And the empty dance floor

Cause there stands a girl who

Through God, I can adore

In my dreams I see you smiling

And standing on the lawn

Friends are eating steaks

And the kids are having fun

Call the babysitter so she can watch the kids

Cause we won't be there tonight

We'll be driving down the road

Going the speed limit of course

You'll be staring at the stars

And I'll be telling you all I know

And even though it won't be much

We'll be happy all the same

Because it's you and me and the open road

Even though I don't know your name

I'm still praying and waiting for that day

For a ribbon in the spotlight

And the empty dance floor

Cause there stands a girl who

Through God, I can adore

And my God knows where you are

And He'll keep you safe from harm
