Lyrics

Second Star to the Right

[Verse 1]

The second star to the right

Shines in the night for you

To tell you that the dreams you plan

They really can come true

[Verse 2]

The second star to the right

Shines with a light so rare, yeah, yeah

And if it’s Never Land you need

Its light will lead you there

[Bridge]

Oh, twinkle, twinkle, little star

So I know where you are

Gleaming in the sky above

Send us to the land we dream of

[Verse 3]

And when our journey is through

Each time we say goodnight, yeah

We will thank the lucky star that shines

The second to the right
