Anne Wilson's song 'Made for the Stars' is an inspirational anthem about holding onto dreams and faith despite life's disappointments. The lyrics reflect on childhood aspirations of becoming an astronaut and the realization that growing up brings challenges. However, the song encourages listeners to keep dreaming and believing, remembering that they are destined for greatness. While not explicitly Christian, the themes of perseverance and hope align with a faith perspective, emphasizing that believers are made for more than earthly struggles.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
I used to lie in my bed late at night
Stare up at the ceiling pretend it's a sky full of stars
In the galaxy
Felt like they were calling me
Thought I'd be an astronaut, land on the moon
But life happened fast and I grew up too soon
I learned that gravity don't mess around
You can't touch the sky with your feet on the ground
But
Dreamers never stop dreaming
Believers keep on believing
When the world keeps on dragging down this dreamer's heart
I look up and remember
I was still made for the stars
These days I'm dreaming up on a stage
And I see myself in a little girl's face
She's hurt like I've hurt
She's seen what I've seen
And the story I tell her
With every song that I sing is
Dreamers never stop dreaming
Believers keep on believing
When the world keeps on dragging down this dreamer's heart
I look up and remember
I was still made for the stars
I was made for the stars
I used to lie in my bed late at night
Stare up at the ceiling pretend it's a sky full of stars
In the galaxy
Feels like they're still calling me
Oh
I was still made for the stars
Dreamers never stop dreaming
Believers keep on believing
When the world keeps on dragging down this dreamer's heart
I look up and remember
I was still made for the stars
