Shooting Stars - Elysian Fields

I’ve lost you once again

But I can’t lose heart

To watch this dream descend

Just tears me apart

You close your eyes

And you can’t hear me

Fast asleep in your bed of misery

Baby get out of bed

Don’t close your eyes my sleepy head

Don’t close your eyes my sleepy head

Look at all the shooting stars

Billions of shooting stars

Streak the sky

Dazzling diamond light

You’re lost to me

And you can’t break free

Wrapped in the gloom of ancient history

Baby get out of bed

Don’t close your eyes my sleepy head

Don’t close your eyes my sleepy head

Look at all the shooting stars

Billions of shooting stars

Streak the sky

Dazzling diamond light

Watch the night

Gather shooting stars

Baby throw off that cloud

The bed of thorns that lay you down

Quick like silver out of bounds

Look at all the shooting stars

Some of them could be ours

Streak the sky

Dazzling diamond light

Wish I might

On shimmering shooting stars

Glimmering shooting stars

Dimming

Shooting stars
