I gaze up at the sky each night
and find the brightest star
It's always waiting there for me
so close, but yet so far


The star winks in the evening sky
and reaches out to me
It magically appears each night
for all the world to see



I've wished upon this special star
my whole life through, it seems
I've closed my eyes and made my wish
of hopes, and plans, and dreams


And then, one day I got my wish
for I finally met you
You are that someone special
who's made all my dreams come true



So now whenever we're apart
I find that same bright star
It makes me feel so close to you
no matter where you are
