Alone again tonight,
Without someone to love.
Stars are shinin' bright,
So one more wish goes up.

Oh I wish I may,
And I wish with all my might,
For the love I'm dreamin' of,
And missin' 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.
There wishes all come true,
So I've got to believe,
That 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.
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,
Everyone but me.

Chorus repeats

Why can't I be as lucky as those other people are?
Oh I guess I must be wishin',
On someone else's star.
