Is it a star, or is it me
You say you believe in
And the nights
When my stage smiles not so wild, and ain't coming easy
Can't you see it's me
All broken down inside
Can't you see it's me
All broken down inside
Can't you see it's me
Honey, you've been dreaming
Then they'll meet you on the streets, and say they've had
A crush on you, for a year or two, maybe three
And they say "Hi, how you doing", but is it really me, or you
You say you believe in
Baby, you've been dreaming
Can't you see it's me
All broken down inside
Can't you see it's me
All broken down inside
Can't you see it's me
All broken down inside
Can't you see it's me
All broken down inside
Baby, you've been dreaming
You see it's me
Is It A Star, or is it me
You say you believe in
And all of the nights
When my stage smile lasts awhile, coming easy
You say you believe in
And the nights
When my stage smiles not so wild, and ain't coming easy
Can't you see it's me
All broken down inside
Can't you see it's me
All broken down inside
Can't you see it's me
Honey, you've been dreaming
Then they'll meet you on the streets, and say they've had
A crush on you, for a year or two, maybe three
And they say "Hi, how you doing", but is it really me, or you
You say you believe in
Baby, you've been dreaming
Can't you see it's me
All broken down inside
Can't you see it's me
All broken down inside
Can't you see it's me
All broken down inside
Can't you see it's me
All broken down inside
Baby, you've been dreaming
You see it's me
Is It A Star, or is it me
You say you believe in
And all of the nights
When my stage smile lasts awhile, coming easy
