"Wish Me
Well" is a melancholic ballad, which comes from the season 2 episode "Teachers". The song was
written by Barry Fasman and Sue Sheridan specifically for Fame in 1982.
Lee Curreri performs the song, one of only 2 solo songs that he didn't actually write himself. Bruno is auditioning for Julliard but is caught up in the wants of both his Father and Shorofsky. The song explains that he needs to find his own way and both the older men in his life need to let him make his own choices.
The Song appears as the final track on the European Album "Sing For You" but is omitted from the U.S version of that album "Rock N Roll World".
As yet the song has never been performed in any of the Fame concerts.

"If You Ask Me, I'd Say It's Strange,
How You can Love Someone and Still Want Them To Change.
We're All Dreamers, Sometimes We Go To Far,
When You Want the Best For Someone You Can Push Too Far.
So, Wish Me Well,
Love Me As I Am.
Dream For Me and Try To Understand,
Because I Love You and Do The Best I Can,
So Wish Me Well and Love Me As I Am.
If You Asked Me I'd Say It's True,
Pleasing Everyone Can Get You So Confused.
One Direction Is Hard Enough To Go,
And Sometime You Got To Get There On Your Own.
So, Wish Me Well,
Love Me As I Am.
Dream For Me and Try To Understand,
Because I Love You and Do The Best I Can,
So Wish Me Well and Love Me As I Am.
So, Wish Me Well,
Love Me As I Am.
Dream For Me But Try To Understand,
Because I Love You and Do The Best I Can,
So Wish Me Well and Love Me As I Am.
