Lyrics

What you wanna be when you grow up?
What you gonna do when your time is up?
What you gonna say when things go wrong?
What you wanna do when you're on your own?

There's a road
Long and winding
The lights are blindin'
But it gets there
Don't give up
Don't look back
There's a silver linin'
It's out there somewhere

Everybody wants an answer
Everybody needs a friend
We all need a shinin' star on which we can depend
So tonight we're gonna wish upon a star
We 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
'Cause if what you have is all you can get
Just keep on tryin'
It just ain't happened yet

Everybody wants to be winner
Everybody has a dream
We all need a shinin' star when things ain't what they seem
So tonight we're gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before
(Gotta get what you wishing for)
(Oh, yeah)

Everybody wants some kindness
Everybody needs a break
We all need a shinin' star when things get hard to take
So tonight we're gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before

Yeah, tonight we're gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before

Gotta find what you're lookin' for
So don't get disillusioned
No, don't expect too much
Yeah, it's out there somewhere babe
