Whatcha wanna be when you grow up? Whatcha gonna do when your time is up? Whatcha gonna say when things go wrong? Whatcha wanna do when you're on your own? There's a road Long and winding The lights are blinding But it gets there Don't give up, don't look back There's a silver lining It's out there somewhere Everybody wants an answer Everybody needs a friend We all need a shining star on which we can depend And so tonight we're gonna wish upon a star We've never wished upon before To find what you're looking for There'll be times in your life, yeah When you' be dancin' 'n' shit But you ain't gettin' it But don't get disillusioned No, don't expect too much Cuz if what you have is all you can get Just keep tryin It just ain't happened yet Everybody wants a winner Everybody has a dream We all need a shining star When things ain't what they seem So tonight we're gonna wish upon a star We've never wished upon before Gotta get where you're headed for Everybody wants some kindness Everybody needs a break We all need a shining star When things get hard to take So tonight we're gonna wish upon a star We've never wished upon before Yeah tonight we're gonna wish upon a star We've never wished upon before
