A long way we have travelled

Just to see your name in lights

We're writing you this letter

Because we're with you tonight

Your Mama misses you so

And your Papa wants you to know

That babe

We want you to have your say

We don't want to stand in your way



The last time that we saw you

And we heard those curtain calls

We held hands and we loved you

And we shouted for more

Your Mama she misses you so

And your Papa wants you to know

That babe we want you to have your say

We don't want to stand in your way.



But call us and say

When you're passing this way

And let us still know that you care

Clean sheets on the bed in your room

And a place at the table and in our hearts.



Such long way we have travelled

Just to see your name in lights

We're writing you this letter

'Cos we're with you tonight

Your Mama she misses you so

And your Papa wants you to know

That baby

We want you to have your say

We don't want to stand in your way.



Every night is a first night for someone

Someone's making their debut

On starry eyes the curtain will rise

Every night is a first night for someone

Someone's bringing the house down

We want you to know

They're stealing the show.
