paroles de chanson I Do It for Applause - Neil Sedaka

I go on stage; go through the paces;
That's been a dream of mine, for such a long time.
It has consumed me every waking moment;
No one can change this heart of mine.
I'll keep this dream alive inside me;
There's something deep within that keeps me going.
I won't be satisfied until I'm showing,
That I can reach you with my song.
And when I go out on the stage,
I seem to come alive in sharing my devotion.
I'll make sure I'll please the crowd;
The message from my heart that reaches your emotion.
I'll try to touch you with my soul until I open all the doors.
And now, I give my heart to you;
I do it for applause.
I can hear the cheering crowd now
And, I'll sing my song with all that's in me
And, I know that it will surely win me
The hopes and dreams I wish to pawn;
I'll sing my songs again tomorrow.
I'll look and stare at all the happy faces
And, I will never, never show the traces
Of any doubts along the way.
And when I go out on the stage,
I seem to come alive in sharing my devotion.
I'll make sure I'll please the crowd;
The message from my heart that reaches your emotion.
I'll try to touch you with my soul until I open all the doors.
And now, I give my heart to you;
I'll try until my dream comes true,
I pray I'll hit the proper chord,
I do it for applause.
