| Song | Beyond the Lights |
| Artist | Cheryl Wheeler |
| Album | Defying Gravity |
| 作词 : Wheeler | |
| Thought you'd bide your time and play your part | |
| but you were wrong dear. | |
| Somewhere down the line your lonely heart | |
| could not belong here. | |
| And in some frame of reason, beyond our vision, | |
| Your love lagged behind and fell apart | |
| Without a soul to hear | |
| On a night like this the stars don't shine | |
| and there's no moonlight. | |
| We're like you I guess, we bide our time, | |
| try to play our parts right, | |
| and wonder where you gathered your angry sorrow. | |
| Through the rolling mist the scenes unwind. | |
| They seem so clear tonight. | |
| Were they in your stars | |
| those lonely nights, tormented hours? | |
| Something snapped your spars | |
| and slacked your lines and took your powers | |
| Did no one see you sinking till you'd gone under? | |
| While you slipped so far beyond the lights, | |
| were we just watching ours? |
