You're A Star
Jake Coco Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Would you give it all up

For just one day

For a chance to live a better life

In a perfect kind of way
Would you give it all up

Just to see her smile

To see her heartbreak earthquake shatter bomb

That you know is worth your while

Would you just give up tomorrow

If it meant you'd live today

And you could have the better life

No matter what they say

Cuz she said that I believe in who you are

I believe that you're a star

I believe that you'll go far

I believe, I believe that you're a star

Would you give it all up

For just one night

Of love and flame and everything

You know just isn't right

Would you give it all up

Just to see her dance

See her inner child smile

Make it all worthwhile

It would be true romance

Would you just give up tomorrow

If it meant you'd live today

And you could have the better life

No matter what they say

Cuz she said that I believe in who you are

I believe that you're a star

I believe that you'll go far

I believe, I believe that you're a star

Break it off, don't break it

Break it off, don't break it down, down

You've come so far

Break it off, don't break it

Break it off, don't break it down, down

You've come so far

And she said that I believe in who you are

I believe that you're a star

And I believe that you'll go far





I believe that you're a star

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE you guys!
I'm a singer but I've been a little distant from music lately cause I have sooo much stuff to do from college, and you guys totally brought me back! Your covers are amazing, I can tell there's such a great energy in the room with you in there doing what you love, I just can't stop watching and singing along...
Now I want my band back together, haha, thank you guys so much!!! I even borrowed my brother's guitar and started playing again a little too. Rock on, guys, all of you, you're very very talented ;)
