“Circle On The Stage”

Where’s my life to go

Because right now I don’t know

Just when I think I’m one step ahead

It seems to be another person’s opportunity instead

I wonder if all my childhood dreams

Will ever step into reality

The place where there’s a circle on the stage

The circle I’ve longed to touch from a young age

I had the chance to see that dream become a reality

Seeing the circle for a moment took the breath away from me

I was asked to sing and on the circle I stood

Calmed my nerves as best I could

From my mouth were the words of “Amazing Grace”

I began to see face after face

Of the people I wanted have there with me

To see one of my dreams had become a reality

I wonder if I’ll be a part of history

And the next time I stand on that circle, will there be an audience before me

I went from being just a boy with a pocket full of dreams

To a man that longs for those dreams to unfold into reality

We will all have to wait and see

If the list of dreams could ever come to be
