I WANT TO BE A STAR

    
THE GREYHOUND PULLED OUT OF THE STATION.
YOU WERE CRYING AS WE SAID GOODBYE.
NOW YOU'RE ROLLING ACROSS THIS GREAT NATION.
CHASING A DREAM THAT WON'T DIE

I'VE LOVED YOU SINCE WE WERE BOTH BABIES,
I CARRIED YOUR BOOKS HOME FROM SCHOOL.
BUT NOW HOLLYWOOD'S DRIVING YOU CRAZY,
AND I KNOW WHAT I HAVE TO DO.
 
I WANT TO BE A STAR,
SHINING DOWN ON YOU.
AND LITE THE WAY,
WHEN YOU ARE FAR FROM HOME.
WHEN THERE'S A MOON BEAM IN YOUR HAIR,
YOU'LL KNOW THAT I'LL BE THERE.
AND YOU WON'T HAVE TO FEEL SO ALL ALONE.

CALL ME COLLECT IF YOU NEED ME,
OR IF YOU'RE JUST A LITTLE BIT BLUE.
JUST KNOW IN YOUR HEART THAT I LOVE YOU,
AND IF L.A. DON'T WANT YOU I DO.

I WANT TO BE A STAR,
SHINING DOWN ON YOU.
AND LITE THE WAY,
WHEN YOU ARE FAR FROM HOME.
WHEN THERE'S A MOON BEAM IN YOUR HAIR,
YOU'LL KNOW THAT I'LL BE THERE.
AND YOU WON'T HAVE TO FEEL SO ALL ALONE.
