Shooting Star
Charlotte Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You are like my own shooting star to my soul
You light up my life with your glow
Take care all the love that you shared will remain
And that's how I cope

'Cause sometimes I stumble when everything tumbles
I think of the world you said
If you look upon the rainbow when the world you know is falling
I will always be there for every day and in every way
I am never far

If you look upon that rainbow and when you mind and soul is calling
I will always be there for everyday and in every way
Like a shooting star, shooting star

Be true to yourself or be blue 'till the end
Don't hold back yourself or pretend
Hold on in a rain or a storm
I'll be there, you're never alone

'Cause sometimes I stumble when everything tumbles
I think of the world you said

If you look upon the rainbow when the world you know is falling
I will always be there for every day and in every way-
I am never far

If you look upon that rainbow and when you mind and soul is calling




I will always be there for everyday and in every way
Like a shooting star, shooting star
