Testo Standing In My Light - Jim Capaldi
Testo della canzone Standing In My Light (Jim Capaldi), tratta dall'album Dear Mr. Fantasy - The Jim Capaldi Story
Now, Alexander the Great
He was a big man across the land
He conquered everything in sight
He had the world at his command
But somewhere deep down inside
He felt there were things that he still didn't know
So he asked the wise men if they knew
Or if there was someplace he could go
They said that in a far off land
Lived a man called Diogenes
Who possessed the kind of knowledge
That would put his mind at ease
So Alexander, he saddled up
And went looking for that Holy Grail
He rode and rode for miles and miles
Until at last he found the trail
Stepping up, he said, "I'm here
Please tell me what it is I crave"
And a voice came back loud and clear
From the darkness of the cave
It said, "Hey, you're standing in my light
Hey, you're standing in my light"
I said, "Hey, you're standing in my light"
I said, "Hey, you're standing in my light"
Well, I don't know if I know what you think I know
But I think it's gonna be fine
Just remember that whatever's been written
Is just the opinion of one man's mind
There are no easy answers
That I know that'll satisfy you
You just gotta take your chances
And do what you wanna do
But you should know that in this world
You get what you deserve
So when your back's against the wall
You'd better not lose your nerve
So now you're standing from the streetlight
You got something to prove
And the pavement artist at your feet
Looks up every time you move
He says, "Hey, you're standing in my light"
Said, "Hey, you're standing in my light"
You know that ain't right
"Hey, you're standing in my light"
You're gonna be there all night
I said, "Hey, you're standing in my light"
Ah, get out my light
So when you're headed for the goddess center
And the dreamer lies within
Just remember what the man said
There's one born every minute
Said, "Hey, you're standing in my light"
Said, "Hey, you're standing in my light"
You know that ain't right
"Hey, you're standing in my light"
Gonna be there all night
I said, "Hey, you're standing in my light"
Alright
"Hey, you're standing in my light"
Alright
"Hey, you're standing in my light"
You know that ain't right
I said, "Hey, you're standing in my light"
Hey, you're standing in my light
