Shooting Stars

I’ve lost you once again
But I can’t lose heart
To watch this dream descend
Just tears me apart
You close your eyes
And you can’t hear me
Fast asleep in your bed of misery
Baby get out of bed
Don’t close your eyes my sleepy head
Don’t close your eyes my sleepy head
Look at all the shooting stars
Billions of shooting stars
Streak the sky
Dazzling diamond light
You’re lost to me
And you can’t break free
Wrapped in the gloom of ancient history
Baby get out of bed
Don’t close your eyes my sleepy head
Don’t close your eyes my sleepy head
Look at all the shooting stars
Billions of shooting stars
Streak the sky
Dazzling diamond light
Watch the night
Gather shooting stars
Baby throw off that cloud
The bed of thorns that lay you down
Quick like silver out of bounds
Look at all the shooting stars
Some of them could be ours
Streak the sky
Dazzling diamond light
Wish I might
On shimmering shooting stars
Glimmering shooting stars
Dimming
Shooting stars
