Love
No one seems to think too much of me
And they're glad to tell it to my face
And that I am not supposed 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
It's on a quest
Every night this shooting star
Goes across the twilight sky
Cause he knows he doesn't quite fit in and
He's longing to know why
Why
I feel so much better when it's night time
That's when I can sort of disappear
When the sun is setting
It's the right time for pretending I'm not here
Sometimes I just stare up to the heavens
Wondering if the answer is inside
That's when I see the light of my second shooting star
On his way to the moon
On his way to who knows where
He's so unlike all the stars he outshines up there
And the solitary star is an awful lot like me
On an ever search through time and space
For a place that won't seem far
If we both hang on for long enough
We both somehow are strong enough
We'll find out where we
Belong
Every night this shooting star
Looks across the twilight sky
Cause he knows he doesn't quite fit in and
He's longing to know why
Know why
He wanted to know why
Why
Why
Why
