1 In my fantasy
You were there with me
I turned towards the mirror and there’s nothing there
 
I sit in a chair
Washing my underwear
Thinking all along you were of good cheer
 
F            G          C  C7/Bb bass
And I am going to try to love
And I am going to rise above
 
2 So begins the star
There’s a spark in my heart
But you just stayed away from my memory
 
I try to get it right
Lay down a song
But there’s something wrong with my song
 
And I am going to try to love
And I am going to rise above
 


3 Baby you’re the one
Same as any other
And I really tried
But I’ve been denied
 
Crazy as it seems
In the hall of broken dreams
Till there’s nothing left
But an empty eggshell
 
And I am going to try to love
And I am going to rise above
 
4 Saw you in my movie
Like you really cared
I turned towards the mirror
And there’s nothing there
 
You were on my mind
I tried to unwind
To a better atmosphere of good cheer
 
And I am going to try to love
And I am going to rise above
 
I am going to try to love
And I am going to rise above
