Alone again tonight

Without someone to love

The stars are shining bright

So one more wish goes up

Oh, I wish I may

And I wish I with all my might

For the love I'm dreaming of

And missing in my life



You'd think that I could find

A true love of my own

It happens all the time

To people that I know

Their wishes all come true

So I've got to believe

There's still someone out there who

Is meant for only me



Chorus:

I guess I must be wishin'

On someone else's star

It seems like someone else

Keeps gettin' what I'm wishin' for

Why can't I be as lucky as those other people are

I guess I must be wishin'

On someone else's star



I sit here in the dark

And stare up at the sky

But I can't give my heart

One good reason why

Everywhere I look

It's lovers that I see

Seems like everyone's in love

With everyone but me



(Chorus)



Why can't I be as lucky

As those other people are

Oh I guess I must be wishin'

On someone else's star
