Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
It's late and I'm awake Staring at the wall Open up my window Head falls out the door No one else around And a shimmer takes my eye I lift my head Blinded by the sky Feel my weight in front Following the sound Moves away so fast Falling to the ground I know what is more to come Jump back to my feet Now I only see ahead of me Chasing down the street (down the street, down the street, down the street) Give my love to a shooting star But she moves so fast That I can't keep up I'm chasing I'm in love with a shooting star But she moves so fast When she falls then I'll be waiting Give my love to a shooting star But she moves so fast That I can't keep up I'm chasing I'm in love with a shooting star But she moves so fast When she falls then I'll be waiting Give my love to a shooting star But she moves so fast That I can't keep up I'm chasing I'm in love with a shooting star But she moves so fast When she falls then I'll be waiting Give my love to a shooting star But she moves so fast That I can't keep up I'm chasing I'm in love with a shooting star But she moves so fast When she falls then I'll be waiting
