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 Id daydream in school With faraway 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 Id have em standing, in the front row With my air guitar, and only my imagination Wed rock the nation The main attraction In the rock and roll show Repeat Repeat And time goes by some grew weary Its hard to keep that dream alive Oh alive But love and music, keep me goin I know that somehow Ill survive Ooh Ill survive Repeat Repeat
