lyrics
I wanna see you shine
I’ll be looking out for you
I wanna see you climb
Every mountain you set your mind to
You put these tears in my eyes
You put these stars in my eyes
You’re gonna smash it down
And everybody will thank you for it
You’re gonna turn them round
I don’t have a doubt about it
You put these tears in my eyes
You put these stars in my eyes
With that smile you couldn’t let me down
Believe me you’re beautiful
I’ll see you shining proud,
You’ll see me and we’ll be knowing
This place that we have found
Is the place where we were going
You put these tears in my eyes
You put these stars in my eyes
With that smile you couldn’t let me down
Believe me you’re beautiful
