Billy Elliot The Musical movie - He Could Be A Star lyrics
rate me<br>
DAD<br>
I couldn't take it anymore son<br>
It was tearing me apart<br>
We're lost, we're finished man, we're through<br>
I need to give the kid a future<br>
I need to look him in the eye<br>
Believe me son I'd do the same for you<br>
<br>
TONY<br>
But you can't give in now Dad<br>
We've all been out a year<br>
I can never talk to you again<br>
You can't do this to me Dad<br>
You can't do it to yourself<br>
He's just a kid, he's only just a bairn<br>
<br>
DAD<br>
He could be a star for all we know<br>
We don't know how far he can go<br>
And no one else can give what I can give,<br>
And no one else can give what I can give<br>
He could go and he could shine<br>
Not just stay here counting time,<br>
Son we've got the chance to let him live,<br>
Yes, we've got the chance to let him live<br>
<br>
TONY<br>
This isn't about us Dad<br>
It's not about the kid<br>
It's all of us, it's everybody's chance<br>
It's everybody's future<br>
It's everybody's past<br>
It's not about a bairn who wants to dance<br>
<br>
It's about our history<br>
It's about our rights<br>
Think about the sacrifice we've made<br>
It's what you always taught us since I was a lad<br>
Please, Dad, don't let that passion fade<br>
<br>
DAD<br>
He could be a star for all we know<br>
We don't know how far he can go<br>
And no one else can give what I can give,<br>
And no one else can give what I can give<br>
<br>
MINERS<br>
We're all in this together Jack<br>
There is another way<br>
All for one.<br>
And one for all<br>
Take this and this.<br>
And this and this<br>
And this and this<br>
And this and this.<br>
Don't worry, lad, we'll never let you fall.<br>
<br>
DAD<br>
He could be a star for all we know<br>
We don't know how far he can go<br>
<br>
TONY<br>
But we'll give all that we can give<br>
We'll all give all that we can give<br>
<br>
MINERS<br>
We will go and we will shine<br>
We will go and seize the time<br>
We will all have pride in how we live<br>
We will all have pride in how we live<br>
(Yes we'll all have pride in how we live<br>
Yes we'll all have pride in how we live)<br>
We will always stand together<br>
Through the dark and through and through the storm <br>
We will stand shoulder to shoulder <br>
To keep us warm<br>
<br>
<br>
