The X Factor Finalists 2011 - Wishing On A Star Lyrics feat. JLS and One Direction Chorus: I'm wishing on a star, to follow where you are I'm wishing on a dream, to follow what it means I'm wishing on the rainbows, that i've seen I'm wishing on the people who, really dream I'm wishing on tomorrow pray never comes I'm wishing on all of the things, we've never done I never thought i'd see, the time where you would be So far away from home, so far away from me Just think of all the moments, that we spent I just cant let you go, for me, you were meant And I didn't mean to hurt you, but i know In the game of love you reap what you sow I feel its time we should make up, baby I feel its time for us to get back together And make the best of things oh baby when we're together Whether or never Chorus: I'm wishing on a star, wishing on a star To follow where you are, a-a-a-are I'm wishing on a dream, to follow what it means And I wish upon the rainbows that I've seen I'm wishing on the people who, really dream And I'm wishing on tomorrow pray never comes I'm wishing on all the things that we, we never to-o-o-old! (Woo! JLS, 1D) Chorus: I'm wishing on a star (Oh wishing on a star) To follow where you are (Oh anywhere you go) I'm wishing on a star (I'm wishing on a star) To follow where you are (To where you, where you go) I'm wishing on a star.
