That's what they told you
A child star in Hollywood
That's what they sold you
Grace with beauty, charme and talent
You would do what you were told
But they robbed you of your childhood
Took your youth and sold it for gold
You're every star that shines in the world to me
Elizabeth can't you see that it's true
You're more than just a star to me
You have surpassed them all
Learned to outlast them all
Many started back when you did
Lost their way and now they're gone
But look at you, a true survivor
Full of life and carrying on
You're every star that shines in the world to me
Elizabeth can't you see that it's true
You're more than just a star
It's very sad, this world can be so bad
But though all the heartaches
You know you were the victor
It's like walking through the fire
You were beating life's battles
You're every star that shines in the world to me
Elizabeth can't you see that it's true
Remember the time when I was alone
You stood by my side and said:
That only a true friend can do
The world knows your work now
Of all the things on Earth now
I pray one day I'll be just like you
