[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
I'm driving around town
Kinda bored with the windows rolled down
See a girl on the bus stop bench
Dressed to draw attention
Hopin' everyone will stare
If she don't stand out, she thinks she'll disappear
Wish I could hold her, tell her, show her
What she wants is already there
[Chorus]
A star is a star
It doesn't have to try to shine
Water will fall
A bird just knows how to fly
You don't have to tell a flower how to bloom
Or light how to fill up a room
You already are what you are
And what you are is beautiful
[Verse 2]
Heard a story the other day
Took place at the local VA
A father talking to his dying son
This was his conversation
"It's not supposed to be like this
You can't go first, I can't handle it"
The boy said, "Dad, now don't you cry
Remember when I was a child, what you used to tell me when I'd ask why?"
