In Search Of Peter Pan - Lyrics by Kate Bush


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.
