Paroles de Star

You can be a star [x3]
You can be a star
A star
You've got the greatest gift in the world
Just believe and you can do it girl
As a little girl
There was so many things I wanted to be
The big stage the attention of the crowd
Had always inspired me
So every night when I knelled down to pray
I'd ask the lord to make me a star one day
Then a voice said

You can be a star [x3]
You can be a star
A star
You've got the greatest gift in the world
Just believe and you can do it oh girl

As time went on
I let doubt get the best of me
Saying you just a country girl
And being a star is only in your dreams
That night my mother set me down to say
Have faith the world will know who you are one day A star
You've got the greatest gift in the world
Just believe and you can do it girl

Is it worth it?
I don't know
That life isn't perfect
Ooh I don't know
Things will get worse if
You become a star
Won't somebody help me out right now?

Is it worth it?
Tell me
That life isn't perfect
Left me know
Things will get worse if
You become a star
Ooh if I become a star

So many broken promises
In writing to the top
Expectations of who I should be
Changed how I see this industry
So I learned
Follow my heart and go with my soul
Stay true to me and never lose sight of my goals

You can be a star [x3]
You can be a star
A star
You've got the greatest gift in the world
Just believe and you can do it girl

You can be a star [x3]
Oh you can be a star
A star
You've got the greatest gift in the world
Just believe have faith you can do it ooh girl
