I met a man without a dollar to his name

Who had no traits of any value but his smile

I met a man who had no yearn or claim to fame

Who was content to let life pass him for a while

And I was sure that all I ever wanted

Was a life like the movie stars led

And he kissed me right here and he said

I'll give you stars and the moon and a soul to guide you

And a promise I'll never go

I'll give you hope to bring out all the life inside you

And the strength that will help you grow

I'll give you truth and a future that's twenty times better

Than any Hollywood plot

And I thought You know I'd rather have a yacht

I met a man who lived his life out on the road

Who left a wife and kids in Portland on a whim

I met a man whose fire and passion always showed

Who asked if I could spare a week to ride with him

But I was sure that all I ever wanted

Was a life that was scripted and planned

And he said But you don't understand —

I'll give you stars and the moon and the open highway

And a river beneath your feet

I'll give you day full of dreams if you travel my way

And a summer you can't repeat

I'll give you nights full of passion and days of adventure

No strings just warm summer rain

And I thought You know I'd rather have champagne

I met a man who had a fortune in the bank

Who had retired at age thirty set for life

I met a man and didn't know which stars to thank

And then he asked one day if I would be his wife

And I looked up and all I could think of

Was the life I had dreamt I would live

And I said to him What will you give

I'll give you cars and a townhouse in Turtle Bay

And a fur and a diamond ring

And we'll be married in Spain on my yacht today

And we'll honeymoon in Beijing

And you'll meet stars at the parties I throw at my villas

In Nice and Paris in June

And I thought Okay

And I took a breath

And I got my yacht

And the years went by

And it never changed

And it never grew

And I never dreamed

And I woke one day

And I looked around

And I thought My God

I'll never have the moon
