Light of a Thousand Smiles

When I would concentrate with all my might

I could imagine, I would imagine

That I was standing in the spotlight

And if I close my eyes very tight

A crystal vision, a premonition

Would find me shining underneath those hot lights

And I'd daydream in school with far away eyes

Living the words of the radio songs

Making my plans someday to take the stage

With a rock and roll band

And I would play in the light of a thousand smiles

(And the sound would be heard for a thousand miles)

Spreading through the towns and fields of America, America

And I would demonstrate, every night

My plan of action, the crowd reaction

I'd have 'em standing, in the front row

With my air guitar and only my imagination

We'd rock the nation the main attraction

In the rock and roll show

And I'd daydream in school with far away eyes

Living the words of the radio songs

Making my plans someday to take the stage

With a rock and roll band

And I would play in the light of a thousand smiles

(And the sound would be heard for a thousand miles)

Spreading through the towns and fields of America, America

And time goes by some grew weary

It's hard to keep that dream alive

Oh, alive

But love and music, keeps me goin'

I know that somehow I'll survive

Ooh, I'll survive

And I'd daydream in school with far away eyes

Living the words of the radio songs

Making my plans someday to take the stage

With a rock and roll band

And I would play in the light of a thousand smiles

Spreading through the towns, spreading through the fields

Taking to the streets of America

Spreading through the towns, spreading through the fields

Taking to the streets of America

Spreading through the towns, spreading through the fields

Taking to the streets of America
