This One's For You ‎
Christy wants a millionaire, a miracle in the rain
Everybody's lookin' to find their heaven,
never come back again
People keep searchin' up and down
Joinin' in the latest thing
And I run around lookin' for love
Waitin' for bells to ring


Riders to the stars
We are flyin', we are fallin'
And I can see the clouds rollin' by
Riders to the stars
We are sailin', we are soarin'
And all we can do is try
We are riders to the stars
We are riders to the stars


Billy wants a fancy car,
says it's just what he needs
Folks into showin', just what they're blowin'
Followin' foolish leads
And Christy wants to find her millionaire,
her miracle in the rain
And I lift my head right up to the sun
Never look down again


Riders to the stars
We are flyin', we are fallin'
And I can see the clouds rollin' by
Riders to the stars
We are sailin', we are soarin'
And all we can do is try
We are riders to the stars
We are riders to the stars


Some folks have money, and others survive
God knows, it's not easy just bein' alive
The dreamer dreams on, and dreams never die
Long as we try, long as we try


Riders to the stars
We are flyin', we are fallin'
And I can see the clouds rollin' by
Riders to the stars We are sailin', we are soarin'
And all we can do is try
We are riders to the stars
We are riders to the stars
