humming
all the way to Reno
you've dusted the non-believers
and challenged the laws of chance
now, sweet
you were so sugar sweet
you may as well have had 'kick me'
fastened on your sleeve

you know what you are,
you're gonna be a star
you know what you are
you're gonna be a star

wing
is written on your feet
your Achilles heel
is a tendency
to dream
but you've know that from the beginning
you didn't have to go so far
you didn't have to go.

you know what you are,
you're gonna be a star
you know what you are
you're gonna be a star

you know who you are
you know who you are
you know who you are.

humming
all the way to Reno,
you've written your own directions
and whistled the rules of change

you know what you are
you're gonna be a star
you know what you are
you're gonna be a star
you know what you are
you're gonna be a star
you know what you are
you're gonna be a star

humming
all the way to Reno
all the way to Reno
all the way to Reno

you're gonna be a star, you are
you're gonna be a star
you're gonna be a star, you are
you're gonna be a star

By bob micheals Thanks for the feedback! I put the Reveal lyrics up as soon as they were transcribed from the beta version, before the album was released. Haven't had the time to replace them with official lyrics. Guess it's time. Thanks anyway for the correction

I will visit this page again.

By moni what a great song . great video too . set ina school . what struck me most about it is how down to earth and friendly michael is . he is so different from the rest of showbis with their pretensiousness and arrogance , so real. look at him interacting with all those kids i dont think that most of that video was even rehearsed beforehand which makes it so refreshing! well done lads!
