Lyrics:
When Grandpa sold the house because the business failed 
He said rock bottom is just solid ground to start again
And when life ain’t nothing like a fairy tale
We just gotta work and hope and pray and say amen
It's gotta get dark enough for you to see the stars

Shine like diamonds on black velvet
Love is just a word until you’ve felt it
Even when life falls apart 
Strong enough to break your heart
It's gotta get dark enough 
For you to see the stars 

Darkness fell on me when I lost my Dad
Girl you were the light that got me through
You walked right beside me down that road to hell and back
And in that midnight hour I fell in love with you
It's gotta get dark enough for you to see the stars

Shine like diamonds on black velvet
Love is just a word until you’ve felt it
Even when life falls apart 
Strong enough to break your heart
It's gotta get dark enough 
For you to see the stars 

Staring at the sky tonight, never felt so alive 
Sometimes the lights have to go out 
For you to see what life’s about

It's gotta get dark enough for you to see the stars
Move you like a work of art
Strong enough to break your heart
It's gotta be dark enough for you to see the stars 
For you to see the stars
