You can come as you are 
With just your heart 
And I'll take you in though 
You're rejected and hurt
To me you're worth
Girl, what you have within

Oh honey, boy 
I don't need no superstar 
Cause I'll accept you as you are
You won't be denied 
Cause I'm satisfied 
With the love that you can inspire
You don't have to be a star, baby 
To be in my show  
Oh, honey 
You don't have to be a star, baby 
To be in my show

Somebody nobody knows 
Could steal the tune that you want to hear
So stop your running around 
Cause now you've found what was cloudy is clear
Oh honey, there'll be no cheering from the crowds
Just two hearts beating out loud
There'll be no parade
No tv or stage
Only me till your dying day
You don't have to be a star, baby 
To be in my show  
Oh, honey 
You don't have to be a star, baby 
To be in my show

Don't think your star has to shine 
For me to find out where you're coming from
Oh honey, girl, what is a beauty queen 
If it don't mean that I'm number one?
I don't need no superstar 
Cause I'll accept you as you are
You won't be denied 
Cause I'm satisfied 
With the love that you can inspire
You don't have to be a star, baby
To be in my show
Oh, honey
You don't have to be a star, baby
To be in my show

You don't have to be a star, baby
