Shooting Star

Seen a shooting star tonight

And I thought of you

You were trying to break into another world

A world I never knew

I always kind of wondered

If you ever made it through

Seen a shooting star tonight

And I thought of you

Seen a shooting star tonight

And I thought of me

If I was still the same

If I ever became what you wanted me to be

Did I miss the mark or overstep the line

That only you could see?

Seen a shooting star tonight

And I thought of me

Listen to the engine, listen to the bell

As the last fire truck from hell

Goes rolling by

All good people are praying

It’s the last temptation, the last account

The last time you might hear the sermon on the mount

The last radio is playing

Seen a shooting star tonight

Slip away

Tomorrow will be

Another day

Guess it’s too late to say the things to you

That you needed to hear me say

Seen a shooting star tonight

Slip away
