Bryan Adams Star

What'cha wanna be - when you grow up,
What'cha gonna do - when your time is up,
What'cha gonna say - when things go wrong,
What'cha gonna 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 we're looking for.)

There'll be times - In your life,
Yeah - When you'll 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 trying,
It just ain't happened yet.

Everybody wants to be a 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 where you're headed for.)

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've never wished upon before.

Gotta find what you're lookin' for,
So don't get disillusioned,
No, don't expect to much,
Yeah - It's out there somewhere babe.
