In Search Of Peter Pan lyrics

It's been such a long week

So much crying

I no longer see a future

I've been told when I get older

That I'll understand it all

But I'm not sure if I want to

Running into her arms

At the school gates

She whispers that I'm a poor kid

And Granny takes me on her knee

She tells me I'm too sensitive

She makes me sad

She makes me feel like an old man

She makes me feel like an old man

They took the game right out of it

They took the game right out of it

When I am a man

I will be an astronaut,

And find Peter Pan

Second star on the right

Straight on 'til morning

Second star on the right

Straight on 'til morning

Dennis loves to look

In the mirror

He tells me that he is beautiful

So I look too, and what do I see?

My eyes are full

But my face is empty

He's got a photo

Of his hero

He keeps it under his pillow

But I've got a pin-up

From a newspaper

Of Peter Pan

I found it in a locket

I hide it in my pocket

They took the game right out of it

They took the game right out of it

When I am a man

I will be an astronaut,

And find Peter Pan

Second star on the right

Straight on 'til morning

Second star on the right

Straight on 'til morning

Second star on the right

Straight on 'til morning

"When you wish upon a star

Makes no difference who you are

When you wish upon a star

Your dreams come true."
