[Verse 1]
Little feet, they kicked me so
And now you're raging like a tornado
I'm not ready to let you go
Can I call you by your name?
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
I think you're lovely as you are
But who am I to understand?
I'll always reach out for your hand
[Chorus]
I don't wanna be the one who says your dreams are not allowed here
I don't wanna be the one who's in your way
I wanna be the one who shines her golden light around you
Can I, can I just call you by your name?
Can I, can I just call you by your name?
[Verse 2]

A lion we could nevеr tame
So crawl up into that space
Before you're too old for my embrace
Now begins another chase
Me to you and you to them
[Chorus]
I don't wanna be the one who says your dreams are not allowed here
I don't wanna be the one who's in your way
I wanna be the one who shines her golden light around you
Can I, can I just call you by your name?
Can I, can I just call you by your name?
[Chorus]
I don't wanna be the one who says your dreams are not allowed here
I don't wanna be the one who's in your way, I
I wanna be the one who shines her golden light around you
Can I, can I just call you by your name?
Can I, can I just call you by your name?
