Little River Band: Face in the crowd lyrics

Little River Band

Face in the crowd

Is this the night I finally will see you? 

Is this the time I've waited for so long? 

Night after night I play this show without you 

Can't help but think about you in every song 

Back in the wings somebody says "five minutes" 

And soon the lights will dim out in the hall 

I check the mirror, at the side of the stage I'm waiting 

Ready to meet the one I want most of all 

[Chorus:]

I see your face in the crowd and I am crazy for you 

You see me crying out loud 

Millions of faces, a sea before me, 

I can see only you are the face in the crowd 

With every song I really get to know you 

A crowd of one, though there's 20.000 more 

We are alone in the midst of all this madness 

Will you be there when I walk out the backstage door?

[Chorus]

Before I know it the show's at its conclusion 

I close my eyes on this visual love affair 

And as I leave the theatre crowds are waiting 

I turn to sign the last book and you are there 

[Chorus]
