I was in between, where i am and where i want to be, chasing dreams. I saw a sign and it opened up my eyes to the path i want to take, but if i fail there would be heartbreak. But i can’t be scared of what might happen. And i have to just push on! So here i go on my own, take a leap of faith, and hope that i grow wings.

----------------Chorus---------------------------

‘Cause i want to soar, way above the clouds, and never come down.

I want to be so high that i am close to the stars.

I wanna be in the land of all my dreams, nowhere in between.

I just wanna be, close to the stars!

-----------------------------------------------------

I took the leap of faith and now my world is changing. Mama don't have to work no more. Daddy, he left when i was just five, but i hope he can see me now, i wonder if he’s even alive. But me and ma, we’re set for life ‘cause dad look, i made it! We don't need you, you weighed us down, but we cut you off and now we’re just flying by. I’m up in the sky so high and looking down, but i still don't see you around.

----------------Chorus---------------------------

‘Cause i want to soar, way above the clouds, and never come down.

I want to be so high that i am close to the stars.

I wanna be in the land of all my dreams, nowhere in between.

I just wanna be, close to the stars!

-----------------------------------------------------

Yeah, mama we made it. We’ll never come down. Even when our time on this earth is done we’ll always be, close to the stars.
