Lyrics
You shined in the darkest night
So I ran to you
There's a picture of you painted inside my mind
But now you're on the ground and I'm gatherin'
Imagination is a poison that'll make you blind
Shooting stars put on a show
Make ya high/ Leave ya low
That's all I think
When I look into your eyes
Sentimental feelin's only make you cry
I dreamed the sweetest dreams
But that was so unwise
Hunger is the only thing that you ever knew
You came into my life to take everything
But now you've bitten off more than you can chew
Shooting stars put on a show
Make ya high/ Leave ya low
That's all I think
When I look into your eyes
Sentimental feelin's only make you cry
And so I walk away
As you rise again
There ya are in the sky with the silvery moon
But I know you all too well to ever look again
If I ever see you it'll be too soon
Shooting stars put on a show
Make ya high/ Leave ya low
That's all I think
When I look into your eyes
Sentimental feelin's only make you cry
