Brittany Howard
Shining Star
[Intro]
Yeah, ooh

[Verse 1]
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams will take you very far
But when you wish upon a dream
Life ain't always what it seems, oh yeah
What you see so nice so clear, yeah
In the sky so very dear, oh yeah

[Chorus]
You're a shining star
No matter who you are
Shining bright to see
What you could truly be, what you could truly be

[Verse 2]
Shining star coming into view
Shine its watchful light on you
Give you strength to carry on, yeah
Make your body big and strong, oh yeah
Born a man-child of the sun, yeah
Saw my work had just begun, yeah
Found I had to stand alone, yeah
Well, bless it now I've got my own, oh yeah, oh yeah
So, if you find yourself in need
Why don't you listen to these words of heed?
Be a giant grain of sand
Words of wisdom, yes, I can
[Chorus]
You're a shining star
No matter who you are
Shining bright to see
What you could truly be
You're a shining star
No matter who you are
Shining bright to see
What you could truly be
You're a shining star
No matter who you are
Shining bright to see
What you could truly be

[Outro]
Shining star for you to see what your life can truly be
Shining star for you to see what your life can truly be
Shining star for you to see what your life can truly be
Shining star for you to see what your life can truly be
