Shooting Star
Boyzone(男孩地带) Lyrics

No one seems to think too much of me here
I am not valued in this place

and they're glad to tell it to my face
People make it clear that they do not value me

And though I am not suppose to be here
I feel like I do not belong here

I'm completely out of place
I feel like I do not fit in

Somehow there has got to be a reason
I am searching for a reason for my existence

even as I try to think it through
I try to understand it but it's hard

There's a bold from the blue
Suddenly, there is a surprise revelation

And I see a shooting star (And I see a star)
I see a star that flashes through the sky

Set apart from all the rest
It is different from all the other stars

While the other stars are standing still (ooh)
This star is moving quickly

He's on a quest
It seems to be on a journey or adventure

Every night this shooting star (Every night this star)
It appears in the sky every night

Dancing across the twilight sky
It is gracefully moving in the sky

Cause he knows he doesn't quit fit in (ooh)
The star is aware that it is different

and he's longing to know why, why (longing to know why)
It is curious to understand why it is different

I feel so much better when it's night-time
I find peace in the darkness

That's when I can sort of disappear
I feel like I can blend in with the darkness

When the sun is set and it's the right time
The darkness makes it easier to hide

for pretending I'm not here
I can pretend that I am not physically present

Sometimes I just start into the heavens
I stare up into the sky

Wondering if the answer is inside
I wonder if the answer to my problems lies within myself

Of my sent that shooting star
I notice the shooting star again

On his way to who know's where (On his way to who know's where)
It is moving to a destination unknown

He's a one like all the stars (ooh)
It is one of many stars

But he outshines out there (shines out there)
It shines brighter than the other stars

And the solitary star (solitary star)
The star seems to exist alone

Is an awful lot like me (ooh)
This reminds me of myself

On an endless search through time and space
I am constantly searching through life

Far a place that won't seem wrong (place that won't seem wrong)
I am seeking a place that feels like home

If we both hang on for long enough
If we persist long enough

we both somehow are strong enough
We have the strength to keep going

We'll find out were we belong
We will eventually find our place in the world

Every night this shooting star (every night this star)
The star appears again and again

Cause he knows he doesn't quit fit in (ooh)
The star is still aware that it is different

and he's longing to know why (why)
It still wants to understand why

Know why (why)
The desire to know why persists

Why (why)
The question remains unanswered

Why (why)
The question is repeated

Know why (why) (to fade)
The desire to know why lingers
