[Verse 1]
I have seen a love so true dwindle in a day
Lovers passing in the night with many words unsaid
Come hold me baby, take me in your arms
We can share the chills of life
Our love will keep us warm
Lovin' together, love so unreal
I'll leave you never, I know what I feel

[Chorus]
I see love forever in your eyes, believe
To us found, my destiny so unreal

[Verse 2]
I would wish upon a star
But the stars aren't high enough
To show my dreams for me and you
No, a star won't be enough
Come hold me baby
You're my fantasy come true
We can share the chills of life
Our love will keep us warm
Lovin' together, love so unreal
I'll leave you never, I know what I feel

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
And if our love should ever part
The stars...from the... (?)

CeCe Peniston is an R&B and dance singer/songwriter known for her international ‘90s pop hit “Finally.” The Phoenix, Arizona native got her start doing demos and background vocals for rapper Overweight Pooch. Though she didn’t have a lot of time to work on her debut album Finally, it still yielded multiple hit singles like “Keep On Walkin,” “We Got a Love Thang,” and the sentimental soul ballad “Inside That I Cried” that landed in the Top 20 Billboard charts in Pop, Dance and/or R&B categories.

For her 1994 follow-up, Thought Ya Knew, CeCe forged into more R&B territory with the Soulshock & Karlin-produced lead single “I’m In The Mood”. The album also yielded the hit singles “I’m Not Over You” and “Hit By Love”.

Label shake-ups affected the success of her third album I’m Movin' On, but the singles “Movin' On” and her remake of Jocelyn Brown’s dance classic “Somebody Else’s Guy” still made impact on both sides of the Atlantic.
