Written for folk singer Beverly Martin wife of singer John Martin after watching a documentary about him.

lyrics

Go on make me a star
and I'll fall, fall in your arms
go on say I'll go far
and I'll fall, fall for your charms

you've seen what I can do
you've seen and heard it by name
you know I'll stay with you
if you teach me how to behave

champagne free cocktails
that's all I want to hear
see my name in bright lights
like you promised my dear

take me dancing with you
I can be who-ever you choose
just one night out of here
I can shine, they couldn't refuse

go on make me a star
play my records when you're away
big up my name to your friends
like you did
on our wedding day

Champagne free cocktails
that's all I want to hear
see my name in bright lights
like you promised my dear
