someone else's star

i've been having one of those nights. i tried sleep, but i found myself tossing and turning and talking to myself...and others (you know how that is....in your brain). i cannot get this song out of my head now as i think back on things.

SOMEONE ELSE'S STAR Lyrics
Artist(Band):Bryan White

Alone again tonight
Without someone to love
The stars are shining bright
So one more wish goes up
Oh I wish I may
And I wish with all my might
For the love I’m dreaming of
And missing in my life

You’d think that I could find
A true love of my own
It happens all the time
To people that I know
Their wishes all come true
So I’ve got to believe
There’s still someone out there who
Is meant for only me

I guess I must be wishing on
Someone else’s star
It seems like someone else keeps getting
What I’m wishing for
Why can’t I be as lucky
As those other people are
I guess I must be wishing
On someone else’s star

I sit here in the dark
And stare up at the sky
But I can’t give my heart
One good reason why
Everywhere I look
It’s lovers that I see
It seems like everyone’s in love
With everyone but me

I guess I must be wishing on
Someone else’s star
It seems like someone else keeps getting
What I’m wishing for
Why can’t I be as lucky
As those other people are
I guess I must be wishing
On someone else’s star

Why can’t I be as lucky
As those other people are
Oh, I guess I must be wishing
On someone else’s star


EVERY singly word of that song resonates through my body tonight as i 'stare up at the sky'.
i want to be kissed under the mistletoe. i dont want to spend christmas 'alone' again. i want love to be like "can't-eat, can't- sleep, reach-for-the-stars, over-the-fence, world-series kind of stuff". If that is in the world, why settle for anything less than that, right?

why does it always feel like youre the only one on the planet without love when its 1:40am and you cant sleep? its not fair. the stars shine bright right at the time i really need them to wish on....must be a trick. lol.

theres just something about the moon too, that makes you want to howl or cry or wonder why it sits there every night all alone and lives to just be beautiful for us. wouldnt the moon get lonely too? i know i do, and i'm just a person...
