Wishing On a Star Lyrics

[Chorus]
I'm wishin' on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishin' on a dream
To follow what it means

[Chorus]
I'm wishin' on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishin' on a dream
To follow what it means

[Post-Chorus]
And I wish on all the rainbows that I see
I wish on all the people who really dream
And I'm wishin' on tomorrow, praying it'll come
And I'm wishin' on all the lovin' we've ever done

[Verse]
I never thought I'd see
A time when you would be
So far away from home
So far away from me
Just think of all the moments that we spent
I just can't let you go, for me you were meant
And I didn't mean to hurt you, but I know
That in the game of lovin', you reap what you sow

[Refrain]
I feel it's time we should make up, baby
I feel it's time for us to get back together
And make the best of things, oh, baby, when we're together
Whether or never
I feel it's time we should make up, baby
I feel it's time for us to get back together
And make the best of things, oh, baby, when we're together
Whether or never

[Chorus]
I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishin' on a dream
To follow what it means

[Post-Chorus]
And I wish on all the rainbows that I see
I wish on all the people we ever greeted
And I'm hopin' on all the days to come and days to go
And I'm hopin' on days of lovin' you so

[Chorus]
I'm wishin' on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishing on a star, whoa-oh
And I wish on all the rainbows that I see

[Chorus]
I'm wishin' on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishin' on a star
And I wish on all the rainbows that I see

[Chorus]
I'm wishin' on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishin' on a star, oh
I'm hopin' and prayin', baby

[Chorus]
I'm wishin' on a star, whoa-oh
To follow where you are
I'm wishin' on a star, baby
To follow wherever you might be

[Outro]
Wishin' on a star
To follow where you are, oh
I'm wishin' on a star
