Let Me Be Your Star (SMASH Cast Version featuring Katharine McPhee and Megan Hilty)

Lyricist: Debra Messing     Composer: Christian Borle

Fade in on a girl
With a hunger for fame
And a face and a name to remember
The past fades away because as of this day
Norma Jeans gone , she’s moving on
Her smile and your fantasies play a duet
That will make you forget where you are
The music starts playing
It’s the beat of her heart sing , let me be your star
Flash back to a girl , with th song in her heart
As she’s waiting to start the adventure
The fire and drive , that makes dream comes alive
They feel her soul , she’s in control
The drama and laughter
The tear just like pearl
Well there all in this girl repertorie
Its all for the taking , and its magic will be making
Let me be your star
Ill just have to forget the hurt that comes before
Forget what used to be
The past is on the cutting room floor
The future is here with me
Choose me
Fade up on a star
With all in her sights
All the love and the lights that surrounds her
Someday she’ ll think twice
Of the dues and the prices
She’ll have to pay
But not today
She’ll do all she can
For the love of one man
And for million who loves , from afar
I’m what you’ve been needing
Is all here and my hearts pleading
Let me be your star
