It'd be so simple, it'd be so easy
to just give in to the pressure
and let your dreams fade away
eventually you'd forget and you may even be happy sometimes

it'd cost you nothing, it'd save you everything
to just give up all the things
which cause all of your pain
let yourself be drowned in the cool and gentle rain
that's calling you away

but everything you are
is wrapped up in a shooting star
falling on a straight course to the sun

no one would argue, or even try to stop you
you'd be doing what the world always will demand
you'd be burying your head in the same cool sand as the rest

but everything you are
is wrapped up in a shooting star
falling on a straight course to the sun

I hope that you can hear me through all of this time and space
I hope we meet again so I can tell you your face
I hope that you see that you could never ever be replaced
you're one of a kind

but everything you are
is wrapped up in a shooting star
falling on a straight course to the sun
