[04:53.00]There's a shadow in the dark
[04:53.00]A Surgeon with a rusty knife
[04:53.00]There's a tiger in a cage
[04:53.00]And he's waiting to be free
[04:53.00]Oh don't go out there
[04:53.00]Someone's moving in the dark
[04:53.00]Wait until the coast is clear
[04:53.00]Before you step into the scene
[04:53.00]You have to know what is for real
[04:53.00]Oh don't go out there
[04:53.00]Standing in the shadow on the opening night
[04:53.00]Waiting for the curtain, can't you feel the bright light?
[04:53.00]Standing in the shadow, now there so much more
[04:53.00]Gotta face the music make it last a lifetime
[04:53.00]There's a cast of thousands
[04:53.00]An army waiting in the wings
[04:53.00]A ghost out on the balcony
[04:53.00]The master's holding centre stage
[04:53.00]Oh don't go out there
[04:53.00]Feel the pounding in your heart
[04:53.00]The tension of a waiting game
[04:53.00]But when the memory catches fire
[04:53.00]Even whores have dreams
[04:53.00]Oh don't go out there
[04:53.00]Standing in the shadow on the opening night
[04:53.00]Waiting for the curtain, can't you feel the bright light?
[04:53.00]Standing in the shadow, now there so much more
[04:53.00]Gotta face the music make it last a lifetime
[04:53.00]And in the still night a small boy cries
[04:53.00]Hands a tremble for his mother's arms
[04:53.00]Now there's no-one there
[04:53.00]This is the moment his time has come
[04:53.00]And through the trap door
[04:53.00]He makes his break his journey has begun
[04:53.00]Standing in the shadow on the opening night
[04:53.00]Waiting for the curtain, can't you feel the bright light?
[04:53.00]Standing in the shadow, now there so much more
[04:53.00]Gotta face the music make it last a lifetime
[04:53.00]Standing in the shadow on the opening night
[04:53.00]Waiting for the curtain, can't you feel the bright light?
[04:53.00]Standing in the shadow, now there so much more
[04:53.00]Gotta face the music make it last a lifetime
