Shooting Star

If we could sit beneath the sky
And watch the stars come pass us by
Then every beat, a soft heart flutter
Could fade into my skin and shudder
Shy wishes on the twinkling diamonds

So silent we are, I cannot speak
You touch my hand, I sneak in closer
To feel you pull away, afraid
And leave me questioning my place

But if you've ever felt this way
I do not know, it's yours to say
And my fear of flinching left me wond'ring
If I should lay my head back down
But I found strength to test the water

Can we lie there in July
And watch the warm, sweet, blackened sky?
Side by side on grassy knoll
Side by side, your heart, my soul

Escape routine, and close your eyes
Softly bow your lips to mine
Nothing more, it's all we seek
But it will make my knees go weak

And then we'll sit, so still and quiet
To wait for sparkling streaks to pilot
Time will pass, but we won't mind
'Cause I wish clocks could tick rewind

You point above to the awaited treasure
Smiling, you watch the white light fall
"Your shooting star," You whisper
I nod reply, because it's true
And little do you think or know,
I'm looking up at you
