I'm wishing on a falling star... Wondering where you are... [Chorus:] I wished for you on a falling star Wondering where you are Do I ever cross your mind In the warm sunshine She's from the city of angels Like Bette Davis, James Dean and Gable Never know what she means to me I fell for the girl that's on TV Met her at a gala affair She wore a green dress and everybody was there Felt outta place as she looked into my eyes Shook her hand around 9pm and now I'm never gonna be the same again Never have to be on a movie screen To be the leading lady in all my dreams Shoobie-do-wop and scooby snacks Met a fly girl and I can't relax The only problem is she's a movie star, oh My friends, they won't believe me If they could only see me At the risk of sounding cheesy I think I fell for the girl on TV [Chorus:] Everybody knows her name Want to take her picture and they're glad she came But I just want to be there when she's down, down (Be there when she's down) I don't want her autograph I just want to call her up and make her laugh Never had to be on the movie screen To be the leading lady in all my dreams Shoobie-do-wop and scooby snacks I met a fly girl and I can't relax Only problem is she's a movie star My friends, they won't believe me If they could only see me At the risk of sounding cheesy I think I fell for the girl on TV [Chorus:] I wished for you on a falling star I'm wishing on a star and I'm wondering where you are Wondering where you are Do I cross your mind in the warm sunshine Yeah, so I wished for you on a bright, shining star Everywhere I look, there you are It's the girl in the green dress She took my breath away And now I look to the sky for the better day To the beat why'all and scooby snacks I met a fly girl and I can't relax Never had to be on the movie screen 'Cause she's the leading lady in all my dreams [Chorus:]
