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 am still the same, or 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
Last time you'll hear the, sermon on the mount
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.
