Shining Star (Stella Stai)

(album: Thelma Houston - 1994)

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Stai, stella stai, stella stai
Is shining brightly up above
Lead me to love, lead me to love
To the one who waits for me
To hold me tight, to hold me tight
And to make it right tonight
To make it right, to make it right
I know love's coming to me
A-ha, and I'll wait here patiently

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Stai, stella stai, stella stai
You know I'm counting on you
To get me through, to get me through
'Cause I've been waiting here so long
For someone strong to come along
Just to make me feel brand new
To make me sing a happy song
I'm waiting here patiently
Oh yeah, I know love's coming to me

Oh, oh, oh
Stai, stella stai, stella stai
Let your magic follow me
To set me free, to set me free
'Cause it ain't no fun at home
All alone by the phone
With myself for company
Please hear my plea, please hear my plea
I need your help desperately
Oh yeah, I know love's coming to me

I tell you know I'll be good
And I'll do all that I should, oh yeah
To make him happy each day
So that he won't have to stray for love
I know you've heard this all before now, yeah
But I can promise you this:
That if you do this just for me
I'll be his for eternity

I know it's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming

Well stai, stella stai, stella stai
You know I'm counting on you
To get me through, to get me through
'Cause I've been waiting here so long
For someone strong to come along
Just to make me feel brand new
To make me sing a happy song
Waiting here desperately
Oh yeah, I know love's coming to me

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Stai, stella stai, stella stai
Let your magic follow me
To set me free, to set me free
'Cause it ain't no fun at home
All alone by the phone
With myself for company
Please hear my plea, please hear my plea
I need your help desperately
A-ha, I know love's coming to me

I tell you know I'll be good
And I'll do all that I should, oh yeah
To make him happy each day
So that he won't have to stray for love
I know you've heard this all before now
But I can promise you this:
If you do this just for me
I'll be his for eternity

I know it's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming
It's here!
