Song Lyrics

I hear your name whispered on the wind
It's a sound that makes me cry
I hear a song blow again and again
Through my mind and I don't know why
I wish I didn't feel so strong about you
Like happiness and love revolve around you

Trying to catch your heart
Is like trying to catch a star
So many people love you, baby
That must be what you are

Waiting for a star to fall
And carry your heart into my arms
That's where you belong
In my arms baby, yeah

Waiting for a star to fall
And carry your heart into my arms
That's where you belong
In my arms baby, yeah

I've learned to feel what I cannot see
But with you I lose that vision
I don't know how to dream your dream
So I'm all caught up in the superstition
I want to reach out and pull you to me
Who says I should let a wild one go free?

Trying to catch your heart
Is like trying to catch a star
I can't love you this much, baby
And love you from this far

Waiting for a star to fall
And carry your heart into my arms
That's where you belong
In my arms baby, yeah (yeah)

Waiting for a star to fall
And carry your heart into my arms
That's where you belong
In my arms baby, yeah

Waiting (however long)
I don't like waiting (I'll wait for you)
It's so hard waiting (don't be too long)
Seems like waiting (waiting)
Makes me love you even more

Waiting for a star to fall
And carry your heart into my arms
That's where you belong
In my arms baby, yeah (yeah)

Waiting for a star to fall
Carry your heart (carry your heart) into my arms
That's where you belong
In my arms baby, yeah (yeah)

Waiting for a star to fall
Carry your heart into my arms
That's where you belong
In my arms baby, yeah (yeah)

(Oh) Waiting for a star to fall
Carry your heart into my arms
That's where you belong
In my arms baby, yeah (ohh)
