lyrics

So here they are
They're sitting on a bench beneath summer stars
Staring at the ground
Sporting worn-out shoes
Which never went too far
From the dreams of country kids
about lives they never lived
Who would have thought
That they actually had a shot


What if the stars could hide in seeds
Would it be so hard to believe
So dig deep inside
dig 'til you find
Sparks to make it real


Jeff, was an ace
On his wheels
There's no race he couldn't win
Call it chance, call it skills
But at the age of sixteen
I was told to call it off
His parents had seen enough
Kind of sureal
But son: "find a job, you'd focus on"


What if the stars could hide in seeds
Would it be so hard to believe
So dig deep inside
dig 'til you find
Sparks to make it real


Dee
Had this thing
She'd put life into her paintings
From vivid colors to vivid feelings
Her art was quite impressive
But with no parents, no driving license
and not a single ounce of confidence
She never
Oh never
Ever really stood a chance to show her talent


What if the stars could hide in seeds
Would it be so hard to believe
So dig deep inside
dig 'til you find
Sparks to make it real


What if our sons could make it big
What if our daughters could succeed
Let them a chance
They have their shot
to break the glass ceiling
