breath, the ocean air
as you stare, at
the sky, at midnight
why wish upon a star
when the distance is so far

keep, an open heart
to let the stars shine
into you, and make things right
but why wish upon a star
when the distance is so far

bridge:

turn out the lights and watch the sky
something up there just might catch your eye

when will the world end?
and will someone warn us before then
these are the questions that you ask the night
chorus:
but why wish upon a star
when the distance is so far

why wish upon a star
when the distance is so far
