Shooting Star

a small town girl with big time dreams
 but nothing's ever as it seems
 a mother waves her girl goodbye
 then slowly hangs her head and cries
 hollywood hills and the big city lights
 outside her window they burn bright
 someday the world will praise her fame
 they'll know her face they'll shout her name
 pre-chorus
 they'll shout it real load
 she'll make her mama real proud
 she'll stand about the crowd
 Chorus
 i am someone
 look what i've done
 stare into the sun
 i am a shooting star
 i am something
 i am someone
 look what i have done
 i am a shooting star
 she looks down at the stars lying on the streets
 says to herself "that will be me"
 a big time dream a small town mind
 searching for a break she may never find
 streets of gold they turned to gray
 just one more chance just one more day
 someday that world will know this face
 she swears they'll never fall from grace
 they'll shout it real loud
 she'll make her mama real proud
 she'll stand about the crowd
 and shout
 chorus (solo)
 she stand out on the streets in the pouring rain
 strangers walk by they don't know her name
 as the silver screen slowly fades to black
 she'll never give in she can never go back
 chorus
 someday you'll see me
 don't you need me
 everybody will believe me
 i am a shooting star
 i will stand strong
 i will hold on
 it's not my last song
 i am a shooting star
