I'm counting all the thoughts about
Everything I've left unsaid
More than every grain of sand
This time, you need to know

I'm stuck with writing songs
To somehow bring it all to life
The hopes and dreams of my heart and soul
Hidden within my inner child

The stars in the sky sing your name
And somewhere up there, you're shining with the million
So I'll wish upon this shooting star
And wonder if I'll ever learn

And even though I'll be condemned a fool
I still believe that someway, somehow
If I just dream long enough
Eventually, I know, they will come true

Sometimes it's tough too soon
But I can't take my eyes off of you
So I've gotta let you know
This time, I've just gotta let you know

And if I don't tell you now, I'll never let this go
(This time, you need to know)
So I'll wish upon this shooting star
(I can't take my eyes off of you)
Maybe if I just dream long enough
(Will I ever learn?)
This time, I've just gotta let you know
(I'll never let this go this time... This time...)
I've just gotta let you know
