Wish Upon a Star
Isn’t wishing upon stars
So foolish, so naïve
They only twinkle in the distance
Farther than anyone can conceive
Keeping faith in something
A million miles away
Is like waiting to hear something
You’ve been wanting someone to say
It ends in tears rolling down cheeks
Like a falling star across the sky
So fast that as soon as you said hello
You had to say goodbye
Yet we wait anyway
Wait for a falling star
We obediently make a wish
And then gaze intently afar
Isn’t wishing upon stars
So foolish, so naïve
But sometimes all we can do
Is just believe.
