  • When life doesn't seem worth the living
    And you don't really care who you are
    When you feel there is no one beside you
    Look for a star

    When you know you're alone and so lonely
    And your friends have traveled afar
    There is someone waiting to guide you
    Look for a star

    Oh everyone has a lucky star
    That shines in the sky up above
    If you wish on a lucky star
    You're sure to find someone to love

    A rich man man, a poor man, a beggar
    No matter whoever you are
    There's a friend who's waiting to guide you
    Look for a star

    A rich man, a poor man, a beggar
    No matter whoever you are
    There's a friend who's waiting to guide you
    Look for a star. Writer/s: TONY HATCH
