Оригинален текст
The first time I saw her she sat with me,
She was just a bit shy I could see
But the look in her eyes brought chills down my spine
In a glance I could feel what she dreamed
The next time I saw her she sang to me,
And if you heard her I think you'd agree
That the melody she made was a sweet serenade
That took an endearing toll on me
Chorus:
When she's in the limelight she knows,
That her smile in the limelight really shows
Anybody watching truly knows
That when she's in the limelight she glows
The third time I saw her she sang with me
Her eyes lit up all a-glee
With the first words we sang it was hard not to say
That together she and I would be
The next time I saw her she wrote for me
A sweet song that I will always take with me
To remember how fortunate I would be
To meet her again in her lime-lit dream
Chorus
(Musical Interlude)
The last time I saw her she embraced me
For it would be the last time we'd meet
As I bid her goodbye, I said with a sigh...
Thank you for sharing your limelight with me
Chorus
