Touch A Star

©1995 by Steve Macdonald


This won the FilKONtario Song Writing Contest, March 1995. We pretty much had Journey's Done in the can; putting this song on was a last-minute addition. I'm glad we did; the timing worked so well that Mary Ellen Wessels, Kathy Mar, and Julia Ecklar all conrtibuted vocals to this track.

This song is dedicated to my son, Joshua. May he dream the dreams and plant the seeds that grow to where he wants to be.


I look into your eyes and wonder
If you see the sky and wonder
If you'll ever get that far
To reach up, and touch a star.

All you need to go is a dream
It's not quite as hard as it seems.
Never lose what you are
To reach out, and touch a star.

Shuttle flights
Bright lit nights
All started with a dream.
Radio
These songs I know
They all started with a dream.

God's greatest gift that I know
Is to imagine, and make so.
I'll help you step up to that bar
To reach out, and touch a star

Space stations high
Planes that fly
All started with a dream.
TV shows
Cars that go
They all started with a dream.

I look into your eyes and I wonder
If you see the sky in wonder
Never lose who you are
To reach out, and claim that star

Shuttle flights
Bright lit nights
All started with a dream.
Space stations high
Planes that fly
All started with a dream.
TV shows
Cars that go
Radio
These songs I know
They all started with a dream.
Dream on.
