Shooting Star

Wonder Boys


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 was still the same 
If I ever became what you wanted me to be 
Did I miss the mark or 
Over-step 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 
The last time you might hear the sermon on the mount, 
The 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.
