[Intro]
The stage is cold, the lights are low
I hear your voice where I used to go

[Verse]
You waited there beyond the noise
I traded love for a louder voice
You held the truth in trembling hands
I held a dream I could not understand

I wrote your name on hotel glass
Watched every city fade too fast
The crowd would rise, the curtain fall
But I came home to empty walls

[Pre-Chorus]
I thought the world was mine to claim
But I lost you in the flame
Now every song knows your name

[Chorus]
Under the spotlight rain
I am calling you again
With every broken line I sing
I feel the ghost of everything

Under the spotlight rain
Love is louder than the fame
If I could turn the night around
I would trade the crown to hold you now

[Verse]
Your photograph beside my bed
Still says the words I never said
I was a fool in a royal coat
Too proud to answer when you wrote

The fans would scream, the papers shine
But none of that was ever mine
The only kingdom I let go
Was in your heart, and now I know

[Pre-Chorus]
I thought a man should never cry
So I let forever die
Now tears fall from the sky

[Chorus]
Under the spotlight rain
I am calling you again
With every broken line I sing
I feel the ghost of everything

Under the spotlight rain
Love is louder than the fame
If I could turn the night around
I would trade the crown to hold you now

[Bridge]
Maybe some roads never mend
Maybe some songs never end
Maybe your heart has found the sun
While mine still waits for what I’ve done

[Solo]

[Chorus]
Under the spotlight rain
I am calling you again
With every broken line I sing
I feel the ghost of everything

Under the spotlight rain
Love is louder than the fame
If I could turn the night around
I would trade the crown to hold you now

[Outro]
The stage is cold, the lights are low
I hear your voice, but you don’t know
