'Andy's Song'
Am I all that I appear
when the spotlight dims and dies
or only a reflection
of the glitter etched lies
Been far from home for much too long
not sure what I should feel
and even if I feel it
could I be sure it's real
So dim the lights and set the stage
they want to see the show
all the time and effort
Lord, I hope they know
'Cause with every song a part of me
is what I give to you
and when the show is over
may the memory shine through
It's hard to form relationships
when you're on the road a lot
I've yet to find a lady
who'll forgive the things I'm not
There's a side of me that's worked so hard
for all I've come to know
a dream achieved throughout the years
I just can't let it go
So dim the lights and set the stage
they want to see the show
all the time and effort
Lord, I hope they know
'Cause with every song a part of me
is what I give to you
and when the show is over
may the memory shine through.
