LYRICS:


I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream
To follow where you'll be

And I'm wishing on all the rainbows that I see
wishing on all the people who've, ever been
And I'm wishing on tomorrow, when will it come
And I'm wishing on all the lovin' we've ever done

I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I never thought i'd see
a time when you would be
so far away from home
So far away from me

Just think of all the moments that we'd spent
I just can't let you go from me, you were meant
And I didn't mean to hurt you, but I know
That in the game of lovin' you, i was slow,

I feel it's time for us to make up, baby
I feel it's time for us to get back together
And make the best of things, oh, baby
When we're together, whether or never

I feel it's time for us to make up, baby
I feel it's time for us to get back together
And make the best of things, oh, baby
When we're together, yeah whether or never,

And I'm wishing on a star

And I'm wishing on all the rainbows that I see
wishing on all the people who've ever been
wishing on tommorrow, when will it come
I'm wishing on all the lovin' we've ever done

But I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream
to follow where you been
said I'm wishing on a star

Album: Paul Weller (1992 Go! Discs Records)

SINGLE:


LYRICS:

Into the mists of time and space
Where we have no say over date and place
Don't get embarrassed if it happens a lot,
That you don't know how you started or where you're gonna stop
And if at times it seems insane - all the tears in searching;
Turning all your joy to pain - in pursuit of learning;
Buy a dream and hideaway - can't escape the sorrow;
Your mojo will have no effect - as we head into tomorrow

Round and round like a twisted wheel
Spinning in attempt to find the feel
Find the path that will help us find
A feeling of control over lives and minds

And if at times it seems insane - all the tears in searching;
Turning all your joy to pain - in pursuit of learning;
Buy a dream and hideaway - can't escape the sorrow;
Your mojo will have no effect - as we head

Into the stars and always up
Drinking from a broken cup
Whose golden gleam is fading fast
Praying that it has not passed
Into tomorrow

LYRICS:

If I could find a way, would I become like you, yeah? 
If I could throw myself away, would I become like you? 
Would I know just where I stood? 
Would my heart be made out of wood? 

If I could be a brick, would I become like you, yeah? 
If I could give my best friend a kick, would I become like you? 
Would I know just where I was at? 
Would my brains be where I sat? 
Would I become like you?

LYRICS:


High tide - mid afternoon
People fly by in the traffics boom
Knowing - just where you're blowing
Getting to where you should be going.
Don't let them get you down
Making you feel guilty about
Golden rain will bring you riches
All the good things - you deserve now. (Right now)

Climbing forever trying
Find your way out - of the wild wild wood
Now theres no justice
You've only yourself - that you can trust in
And I said - high tide - mid afternoon
People fly by in the traffics boom
Knowing - just where you're blowing
Getting to where you should be going.

Day by day your world fades away
Waiting to feel - all the dreams that say
Golden rain will bring you riches
All the good things - you deserve now - and I say
Climbing forever trying
You're gonna Find your way out - of the wild wild wood
Said you're gonna find you way out - of the wild wild wood.

LYRICS:

Oh, I know that it’s getting late
But I don’t want to go home
I’m in no hurry baby time can wait
‘Cause I don’t want to go home

Listen to the man sing his song
I don’t want to go home
I don’t mind if it takes all night long
‘Cause I don’t want to go home

Listen, baby, I know we had to try 
To reach up and touch the sky, baby 
Whatever happened to you and I 
That I don’t want to go home?

Lord, look at how all the people stare
Said I don’t want to go home
In their minds I know they’ve all been there
I don’t want to go home

I know the words to this song are real
But, oh, I don’t want to go home
I know he’s talking ‘bout the way I feel
And I don’t want to go home

Listen, baby, I know we had to try
To reach up and touch the sky, baby 
Whatever happened to you and I
That I don’t want to go home?

I want to hear people laughing and having a good time
I want to know why she told me she had to go
Why did she leave me lonely?

I know that it’s time to go
But I don’t want to go home
You can play play your blues, play ‘em soft and low 
‘Cause I don’t want to go home

 I know the words to this song are real
But, oh, I don’t want to go home
I know he’s talking ‘bout the way I feel
And I don’t want to go home

I don’t want to go, believe me, darling 
I don’t want to go home 
Don’t wanna be all alone 
I don’t want to go home, baby

Ain’t nobody waitin’ at home 
Baby, won’t you please come home 
Baby, baby, baby 
Baby, baby, baby 
Baby, baby, baby 
Baby, won’t you please come home?
