He wishes you were a man on the moon
So she could see him shine

But all he is, is a boy on the street
With a plan in mind

He wishes he were a shooting star
So she could see him fly

But all he is, is a boy with a dream
Would it even be worth the try

He’ll go on living life trying to satisfy
The ones who criticize
The boy he hides inside his heart of stone

He grows up to be the man of her dreams
Oh so it appears
But he can not see that he’s left
All that she grows dear

WIth a high class job and a brand new car
He’ll show her what he’s worth
He’ll fly high off to the moon
Come crashing back to earth

He’ll go on living life trying to satisfy
The ones who criticize
The boy he hides inside his heart of stone

He’ll go on living life trying to satisfy
The ones who criticize
The boy he hides inside his heart of stone

He’ll go on living life trying to satisfy
The ones who criticize
The boy he hides inside his heart of stone

He wishes he were a man on the moon
So he could be her all

But all she wants is a boy on the street
With nothing to prove at all
