LYRICS

I hear your name whispered on the wind
it's a sound that makes me cry
I hear a song blow again and again
through my mind and I don't know why
I wish I didn't feel so strong about you
like happiness and love revolve around you

trying to catch your heart is like trying to catch a star
so many people love you baby
that must be what you are

waiting for a star to fall
and carry your heart into my arms
that's where you belong
in my arms baby yeah

I've learned to feel what I cannot see
but with you I lose that vision
I don't know how to dream your dream
but I'm all caught up in superstition
I want to reach out and pull you to me
who says I should let a wild one go free

trying to catch your heart is like trying to catch a star
but I can't love you this much baby
and love you from this far

waiting (however long)
I don't like waiting (I'll wait for you)
it's so hard waiting (don't be too long)
seems like waiting makes me love you even more.
