Some people shoot for the stars
Dream upon dream
They long to go far
Chasing their rainbow so high
Wish upon wish
They’ll reach for the sky
But I got one little dream
And baby that’s all I want
Girl it’s up to you
You can make my dreams come true

I just want to be the one in your life
For ever, for always
I just want to be the one in your life
For ever , for always

I don’t need cheers from the crowd
To make me feel big
To make me feel proud
Darlin just a little touch of your hand
Is all that I need
To feel like a man
And I keep hoping each day
I’ll woun’t dream my life away
Girl you hold the key
To make my dream a reality
