A long way we have traveled
Just to see your name in lights
We're writing you this letter
Because we're with you tonightYour mama she misses you so
And your papa wants you to know
That babe, we want you to have your say
We don't want to stand in your wayThe last time that we saw you
And we heard those curtain calls
We held hands and we loved you
And we shouted for moreYour mama she misses you so
And your papa wants you to know
That babe, we want you to have your say
We don't want to stand in your wayBut call us and say
When you're passing this way
And let us still know that you careClean sheets on the bed in your room
And a place
At the table and in our heartsEvery night is a first night for someone
Someone's makin' their debut
On starry eyes
The curtain will riseYour mama she misses you so
And your papa wants you to know
That babe, we want you to have your say
We don't want to stand in your wayBut call us and say
When you're passing this way
And let us still know that you careClean sheets on the bed in your room
And a place
At the table and in our heartsSuch a long way we have traveled
Just to see your name in lights
We're writing you this letter
Because we're with you tonightYour mama she misses you so
And your papa wants you to know
That baby, we want you to have your say
We don't want to stand in your wayEvery night is a first night for someone
Someone's makin' their debut
On starry eyes
The curtain will riseEvery night is a first night for someone
Someone's bringing the house down
We want you to know
They're stealing the show'Cause baby
We don't want to stand in your way
