Lyrics

So another man says that he can't compete

That he can't love a moving target

So another affair gets an incomplete

Well, it's time to adjust my plan

'Cause when I'm up there on the silver screen

I can make the whole world want Norma Jeane

So I can't have the love of a single man

But a million or more, well that I can

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 Jeane's 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 saying

"Let me be your star"

Flashback to a girl with a song in her heart

As she's waiting to start the adventure

The fire and drive that make dreams come alive

They fill her soul, she's in control

The drama, the laughter, the tears just like pearls

Well, they're all in this girl's repertoire

It's all for the taking and it's magic we'll be making

Let me be your star

I'll just have to forget the hurt that came 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 it all in her sights

All the love and the lights that surround her

Someday she'll think twice of the dues and the price

She'll have to pay, but not today

She'll have to pay, but not today, well

She'll do all she can for the love of one man

And for millions who look from afar

I'm what you've been needing

It's all here and my heart's pleading

Let me be your star
