Shining Star written by Maurice White / Philip James Bailey / Lorenzo Russell Dunn
Lyrics
"Yeah, hey, hey
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams will take you very far, yeah
But when you wish upon a dream
Life ain't always what it seems, oh yeah
What you see on nights so clear, hey
In the sky so very dear, yeah?
You're a shining star
No matter who you are
Shining bright to see
What you could truly be
(What you could truly be)
Shining star come into view
To shine its watchful light on you
Give you strength to Perry oh yeah
Yeah, make your body big and strong, yeah
Born a man-child of the sun, yeah
Yeah, saw my work had just begun
Yeah, found I had to stand alone, yeah
Bless it now, I've got my oh no
Oh yeah, oh yeah
So, if you find yourself in need
Why don't you listen to these words of heed
Be a giant or grain of sand
Words of wisdom, yes, I can
You're a shining star
No matter who you are
Shining bright to see
What you could truly be
You're a shining star
No matter who you are
Shining bright to see
What you could truly be
You're a shining star
No matter who you are
Shining bright to see
What you could truly be
Shining star for you to see
What your life can truly be
Shining star for you to see
What your life can truly be
Shining star for you to see
What your life can truly be"
One classic Earth, Wind & Fire song inspires me to post a few more.
