Shooting Star
Bag Raiders Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Staring at the wall
Open up my window
Head falls out the door
No one else around
And a shimmer takes my eye
I lift my head
Feel my weight in front
Following the sound
Moves away so fast
Falling to the ground
I know what is more to come
Jump back to my feet
Now I only see ahead of me
Chasing down the street (down the street, down the street, down the street)
Give my love to a shooting star
But she moves so fast
That I can't keep up
I'm chasing
I'm in love with a shooting star
But she moves so fast
When she falls then
I'll be waiting
Give my love to a shooting star
But she moves so fast
That I can't keep up
I'm chasing
I'm in love with a shooting star
But she moves so fast
When she falls then
I'll be waiting
Give my love to a shooting star
But she moves so fast
That I can't keep up
I'm chasing
I'm in love with a shooting star
But she moves so fast
When she falls then
I'll be waiting
Give my love to a shooting star
But she moves so fast
That I can't keep up
I'm chasing
I'm in love with a shooting star
But she moves so fast
When she falls then
I'll be waiting
The lyrics to Bag Raiders' song Shooting Stars depict the singer's intense infatuation with a shooting star that they have seen outside their window. The singer's vivid description of their surroundings creates an ethereal atmosphere, as they describe their lone presence in the quiet night and the bright sky above them. Suddenly, the singer is drawn to the sound of the shooting star moving quickly away from them, inspiring them to chase it down the street. The recurring refrain, "give my love to a shooting star," serves as a manifestation of the singer's desire to reach their elusive object of affection, despite knowing that it is moving too fast for them to catch up. The final lines of the song express a sense of hopeful waiting for the shooting star to eventually fall.
The song's lyrics provide a powerful metaphor for chasing after something that is unattainable, whether it be a person, an opportunity, or a dream. It speaks to the universal human condition of having impossible desires and desires that are difficult to achieve. The singer's vulnerability and longing are palpable.

It's late and I'm awake
I'm awake at a late hour
Staring at the wall
I'm gazing at the wall in my room
Open up my window
I'm opening my window
Head falls out the door
I stick my head out of the window
No one else around
No one else is present
And a shimmer takes my eye
I see a bright, shining light
I lift my head
I raise my head to look up
Blinded by the sky
The bright, shining light from the sky gives me a temporary loss of vision
Feel my weight in front
I sense the gravity pulling me forward
Following the sound
I'm chasing the sound of the shooting star
Moves away so fast
The shooting star moves away quickly
Falling to the ground
The shooting star disappears
I know what is more to come
I expect there to be more shooting stars
Jump back to my feet
I quickly regain my standing position
Now I only see ahead of me
I look forward to seeing more shooting stars
Chasing down the street (down the street, down the street, down the street)
I'm running after the shooting star
Give my love to a shooting star
I'm expressing my affection for the shooting star
But she moves so fast
The shooting star is moving quickly
That I can't keep up
I can't match the speed of the shooting star
I'm chasing
I'm pursuing the shooting star
I'm in love with a shooting star
I'm deeply infatuated with the shooting star
When she falls then
I'm waiting for the shooting star to fall
I'll be waiting
I'll patiently wait for the shooting star to come back down

Verse: Rhys Taylor]
It's late and I'm awake, starin' at the wall
Open up my window, head floats out the door
No one else around, the shimmer takes my eye
I lift my head, blinded by the sky
Feel my weight in front, followin' the sound
Moves away so fast, fall down to the ground
I know there's more to come, jump back to my feet
Now I only see ahead of me, chasin' down the street
(Down the street, down the street, down the street, down the street, down the...)

Gave my love to a shootin' star
But she moves so fast that I can't keep up, I'm chasin'
I'm in love with a shootin' star
But she moves so fast, when she falls, then I'll be waitin'
Gave my love to a shootin' star
But she moves so fast that I can't keep up, I'm chasin'
I'm in love with a shootin' star
But she moves so fast, when she falls, then I'll be waitin'
Gave my love to a shootin' star
But she moves so fast that I can't keep up, I'm chasin'
I'm in love with a shootin' star
But she moves so fast, when she falls, then I'll be waitin'
Gave my love to a shootin' star
But she moves so fast that I can't keep up, I'm chasin'
I'm in love with a shootin' star
But she moves so fast, when she falls, then I'll be waitin'
