Cain's Ballroom Dream Lyrics

You are where it all began

Boys were lined up at your door

To take their turn with you around that hardwood floor

You're always shining bright, like a beacon in the night

In my wildest dreams I could not ask for more

How I long to be, standing with your lights

Shining down on me before I die

You were meant for me

As cliche' as it seems

You're the star of all my Cain's ballroom dreams

Playboys from the lone star state

The troubadours were worth the wait

To get into that ballroom down on main

But now I'm sitting on the sidelines

No one here is hearing my lines

Because I still haven't made it to your stage

How I long to be, standing with your lights

Shining down on me before I die

You were meant for me

As cliche' as it seems

You're the star of all my Cain's ballroom dreams

You came to me in a dream

Said write a song for me

With a melody that gets stuck in their heads

No more sitting on the sidelines

Now they'll sing along to my lines

In a song no one ever will forget

Here I am tonight, standing with your lights

Shining down on me so big and bright

You were meant for me

As cliche' as it seems

You're the star of all my Cain's ballroom dream

And I don't want to wake from this Cain's ballroom dream
