Lyrics
The Planets Aligned
VERSE
You held the master key to the hearts of the boys at Jackson High
I used to watch for you in those crowded halls
I'd decide to ask you out sometimes when you'd say "hi"
Then at night, lose my nerve to place that call
I'd always find a reason why
I shouldn't even try
Like the timing wasn't right
Or I should wait for a sign
CHORUS
Like a thousand shooting stars etching gold into the night
Or the man in the moon winking his bright eye
Some kind of miracle, telling me its time
I would make you love me
When the planets aligned
VERSE
Our old classmates here tonight seem to be doing well
And it's been a while since I felt butterflies
I guess ten years can change how a man sees himself
But watching you walk in, it's no wonder I
Would find a reason why
I shouldn't even try
Like the timing wasn't right
Or I should wait for a sign
CHORUS
Like a thousand shooting stars etching gold into the night
Or the man in the moon winking his bright eye
Some kind of miracle, telling me its time
I would make you love me
When the planets aligned
BRIDGE
Tonight I left my fears in the past
And you smiled and said I thought you'd never ask
As we danced, you pulled me closer and when I closed my eyes
I knew that everything had turned out [just] right
MODIFIED CHORUS
I saw a thousand shooting stars etching gold into the night
And the man in the moon winking his bright eye
Some kind of miracle, telling me its time
To make you love me
Tonight. . .
The planets aligned
