Shooting Stars

about

This track was remixed in 2008 and an extended version of the album intro was added - this is the first time that Work in Progress has been released with what I think is a satisfactory beginning

lyrics

Shooting Stars

Your beauty underlines you, but it is not who you are
And even though you’re walking in the sunlight
Something feels much colder than it ever was before
And you’re waiting for another light to warm you

Some embraces leave you wanting more
Than you had before, or could ever hold within those hands
Passing faces made you think of days
Back when you were small, and never questioned who you were

Your future hasn’t found you, but it’s waiting in the wings
Listening to hear its cue to enter
The light has never left you but it sometimes burns so low
That people cannot see and wander past you

Shooting stars used to calm you down
Keep you on the ground, but with your head still in the clouds
Crashing waves told you not to fear
Brining heaven near as water washes over stone

Do not wait for reason to find you
Do not wait for purpose to walk away again
And when it comes you will be waiting
When it comes, you will be ready

Your beauty underlines you, but it will not take you far
No further than the eyes of men will wander
And though you search for love still, it’s everywhere you look
Hiding in those unpredicted places

Shooting stars, frosty morning air
Sunrise on the sea, or in the nightclub’s thumping beat
Crashing waves, the stranger’s smiling face
Finding heaven’s place like water rushing through your soul

Do not wait for reason to find you
Do not wait for purpose to walk away again
And when it comes you will be waiting
When it comes, you will be ready…
