Shooting Stars
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We keep our love in a plain brown box
We keep it tied with a simple lock
We hold it close 'cause it's all we got
We think it's ordinary but it's not
In a world that's starting to fade
A little love could pave the way
Don't keep it tied with the simple lock
You think it's ordinary but it's not
Chorus:
Maybe this life is just a bout love and tenderness
If all we are, are shooting stars
Maybe we, we can fight
All of this pain and lonliness if
All we are, are shooting stars
Tired of hearing 'bout the bling-bling
We're so concered with material things
It's all cars and diamond rings
And do you think it's going to ease your sting
Cause that's a hole that you can't fill
Velvet rope overkill
Free your mind let your hear sing
And just remember that they're only things
(Chorus)
I used to live by the minute
I was tooo blind to see
Now I've found the strength to admit it
Now it's all I believe
Please
(Chorus)
