If I Hadn't Reached for the Stars

Somewhere just over the rainbow

lie answers to all our dreams

but the road we must follow to reach them

is paved with much anguish and griefThere's heartache around every corner

it lurks like a thief in the night

hiding silently deep in the shadows

making victims of those passing byOn this highway of dreams that we travel

there's no exit for easy street

it's rough and it's rocky and weathered by tears

and it's been no exception for me

but i know it's the right road i've taken

cause it's lead me somehow to your heart

and i may never have fallen for you

if i hadn't reached for the starsin the curves we meet pain and rejection

at times it's so hard to be strong

but just when i think about turning around

you give me strength to go on
