A city made of poison
Couldn't keep her off her feet
She had desires to chase
And dreams to feed
A small town
With no way in and no way out
Couldn't keep her from drowning out
Roaring contempt
So she sought solace in the basslines
And wasted away a lonely night
Wishing on shooting stars
In the black expanse of country sky
*Star light, star bright
I wish I may, I wish I might
Break this curse
And find courage to risk the flight*
For years, it seemed
She'd wished so long
and asked herself
*What am I doing wrong?
Plainly, I do not belong
Because my soul has this fire
This passion burns brighter
Than any flame I've ever seen
I believe, I do believe...*
Got the power to change
But circumstance forced her stay
No money, no escape
But she knew that one day
Efforts would prevail
And knew how
The wind always seemed to say
*Darling, one day
I'll sweep you away because
I hear you pray, and it's not in vain
So wipe your tears and find your strength*
*Keep singing that song,
You're already gone, gone, gone
You've been drifting on harmony all along*
