When the spotlight hits my face I'm alive The stage is where l'll always survive The only place where I want to be When I hear the audience coming in For me the magic stars to begin And then I know they've come to see me When I hear the maestro strike up the band And the drums begin to play It's the only way that I understand To live my life each day I was born to sing for ever Born to sing for you And as long as we're together There is nothing else I want to do I was born to sing for ever To me that's everything And until the end of time I know I'm born to sing When the rhythm starts to beat in my brain I sing the verse and then the refrain I love to hear the sound of applause When the crowd appreciates what I do I find that each performance is new I go on singing that is because There are those who think that I am wasting my time They say that life's not just a song But as long as there is music and rhythm I know where I belong I was born to sing for ever Born to sing for you And as long as we're together There is nothing else I want to do I was born to sing for ever To me that's everything And until the end of time I know I'm born to sing I was born to sing for ever To me that's everything And until the end of time I know I'm born to sing.
