No one seems to think too much of me here And they're glad to tell it to my face Even though I'm not suppose to be here I'm completely out of place Somehow there has got to be a reason Even as I try to think it through There's a bolt from the blue
And I see a shooting star (and I see a star) Set apart from all the rest While the other stars are standing still (ooh) He's on a quest Every night this shooting star (every night this star) Dancing across the twilight sky Cause he knows he doesn't quit fit in (ooh) And he's longing to know why, why (longing to know why)
I feel so much better when it's night-time That's when I can sort of disappear When the sun is set and it's the right time For pretending I'm not here Sometimes I just start into the heavens Wondering if the answer is inside That's when I see the light
Of myself that shooting star On it's way to who knows where (on his way to who knows where) He's a one like all the stars (ooh) but he outshines out there (shines out there) And that solitary star (solitary star) Is an awful lot like me (ooh) On an endless search through time and space Far a place that won't seem wrong (place that won't seem wrong)
If we both hang on for long enough We both somehow are strong enough We'll find out were we belong
Every night this shooting star (every night this star) Dancing across the twilight sky Cause he knows he doesn't quit fit in (ooh) And he's longing to know why (why) Know why (why) Why (why) Why (why) Know why (why) (to fade)
