OH my god this songs makes my heart melt!!!! One of things I love about it is during the chorus how she says "...tell me I can do it too", then at the end of the chorus she she says "Maybe I can do it too". The "Tell me" to "maybe I can" part really gives this feeling of how her confidence is building where at first she wanted this other person to be her rock, but now she is seeing it in herself. In the context of the song it's subtle, but powerful to me.

Funny how sometimes life
Just changes overnight
Magically everything you do turns out so right

Just like that
You pull rabbits out of your hat

You've got the charm
That even wizards can't explain
How to make rainbows from
A single drop of rain
Who can say?
It's a trick you learn how to play

When you're shooting for the moon
And finally make it
Guess a lucky star is shining on you
The candle on the cake is yours so take it
Make another wish its sure to come true
Isn't that the way you do it?
Tell me I can do it too

Yes the candle on the cake is yours so take it
Make another wish it's sure to come true
You say there's really nothing to it?
Maybe I can do it too

Who would believe one day
You'd learn to walk on air
Everyone said "No way, you haven't got a prayer"
Click your heels
That's how up and happy it feels

When you're shooting for the moon
And finally make it
Guess a lucky star is shining on you
The candle on the cake is yours so take it
Make another wish its sure to come true
Isn't that the way you do it?
Tell me I can do it too

Really well done! Can I put a request in for a “part two” with the electronic song they danced to at the high school dance? 🐺🏀🎹

Haven’t seen this since it came out in theaters. The video images are rad - this movie must be so dated - perfect 80s watch. I gotta see it again. How many actual flips does he do on top of that van??
