      Waiting For A Star To Fall
      written by: George Merril/Sharon Rubican
        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

        (repeat)

        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
        So 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 for a star to fall
        And carry your heart into my arms
        That's where you belong
        In my arms baby, yeah

        (repeat)

        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...)

        Waiting for a star to fall
        And carry your heart into my arms
        That's where you belong
        In my arms baby, yeah

        (repeat)


      Note:
      George Merrill & Shannon Rubicam) were at a Whitney Houston concert when the inspiration for this one hit. Whitney had just got done singing "How Will I Know" when the two looked up to see a falling star. Shannon pulled out a notebook and jotted down the line "Waiting for a star to fall" and the two finished the song later.
