Shooting Star

Close your tired eyes
Relax and then
Count from one to ten
And open them
All these heavy thoughts
Will try to weigh you down
But not this time
Way up in the air
You're finally free
And you can stay up there
Right next to me
All this gravity
Will try to pull you down
But not this time
When the sun goes down and the lights burn out
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So Shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light
Cause it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So Shine no matter where you are
Tonight
Woah, Woah, Woah
Brighter than a shooting star
Shine no matter where you are
Tonight
Gaze into my eyes
When the fire starts
And feel the flame so hot
It melts our hearts
Oh the pouring rain
Will try to put it out
But not this time
Let your colors burn
And brightly burst
Into a million sparks
That all disperse
Illuminate a world
That will try to bring you down
But not this time
When the sun goes down and the lights burn out
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So Shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light
Cause it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So Shine no matter where you are
Tonight
Woah, Woah, Woah
Brighter than a shooting star
Shine no matter where you are
Tonight
A thousand heartbeats beating time
It makes this dark planet come alive
So when lights flicker out tonight
You gotta shine
When the sun goes down and the lights burn out
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So Shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light
Cause it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So Shine no matter where you are
Tonight
Woah, Woah, Woah
Brighter than a shooting star
Shine no matter where you are
Tonight
