In a cloud of dust 

on a greyhound bus

she crossed the cook county line.

Slept all the way to nashville

big dreams running through her mind.

She said sure as Im breathing 

I'm gonna be a big star some day

She was jumping into the deep end

on a leap of sweet blind faith.



Chorus 



It's about hoping    It's about dreaming 

It's about never not- believeing

It's about taking a walk out on the wire 

and never looking down.

It's about living instead of dying

It's about spreading your wings and flying

Its all about trying

oh yeah



It's been six years gone 

since she left home

and she hasn't made it big yet.

Oh but theres no second guessing

baby, she's got no regrets.

She still works the late shift down 

at the Greasy Spoon Cafe

and when she brings you out your milkshake

Honey,  well you just might hear her say...



(Chorus)



It's about hoping    It's about dreaming 

It's about never not- believeing

It's about taking a walk out on the wire 

and never looking down.

It's about living instead of dying

It's about spreading your wings and flying

Its all about trying

oh yeah



It's not wheather you win or lose its 

getting in the game

once you set your wings in motion

well you'll never be the same



repeat chorus
