Alone again tonight
Without someone to love
The stars are shining brightly
So, one more wish goes up

Oh, I wish I may
And I wish 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)
And I guess I must be wishin'
On someone else's star
It seems like someone else
Keeps getting what I'm wishin' for

Why can't I be as lucky
as those other people are
Oh, 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
Its seems like everyone's in love
With everyone but me

(Chorus)
And I guess I must be wishin'
On someone else's star
It seems like someone else
Keeps getting what I'm wishin' for

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

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